Immigrant workers and employers face heightened risks from federal immigration enforcement actions such as ICE raids, detentions, and I-9 audits. To prepare for these, employers are encouraged to prepare a written response plan, train staff to refuse entry without a judicial warrant, avoid disclosing information, and document all ICE activity. The guide also recommends supporting affected workers through legal referrals, leave options, and financial assistance, while connecting with local immigrant response networks.
