8. Accuform I-9 E-verify Software: What's at Stake?

As unfair as it may sound, the fact is that certain industries are considered high risk for targeting by ICE or the department of labor. It's just a reality of the facts on the ground. You can think of it as compliance "profiling".
Headline: Who's at risk?
The government goes after these companies or different reasons such as past compliance issues, high turnover, or their proclivity for hiring low-wage, unskilled workers that might attract new immigrants.
Industries such as fast food chains, restaurant and hospitality, convenience store franchises, manufacturing, wholesalers, janitorial and groundskeeping services for example regularly receive increased scrutiny. These industries are considered high profile targets and are constantly in the government's crosshairs and need to be extra sure of comprehensive compliance as only Accuform I-9 can deliver.
Here are just a few recent examples of well-known firms that have experienced an ICE raid and paid significant fines:
• Morton's steakhouse (I believe you mentioned today)
• Wal-mart
• Panda Express
• Cargill
• Swift Meatpacking
Again, if you can be considered anything like any of the companies we've described, comprehensive compliance through Accuform I-9 isn't just a luxury, it's a critical component to protecting your assets and your reputation.
