HR Chat: ICE Encounters

As a business owner, you are concerned after learning about the possibility of a targeted ICE raid at your place of business. Although all of your employees are lawful U.S. citizens, you have questions regarding several legal issues. First, you want to understand your rights as a business owner- specifically, whether you are required to allow ICE agents to enter your business if they do not have a warrant. Additionally, because your business is open to the public and serves customers daily, you are concerned about whether you could be held responsible if undocumented individuals are arrested on your premises.
