Bass, Berry & Sims will host an insightful webinar on Wednesday, February 26, at 12:00 p.m. Central. Attorneys Anna Grizzle, Mary Leigh Pirtle, Lisa Rivera and Elizabeth Warren will provide guidance and best practices on effectively responding to a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid.

With the recent Executive Order reversing immigration enforcement policy restrictions and the surge in related headlines, employers are navigating uncertainty regarding preparation for immigration compliance investigations or raids. It is essential for employers to understand their rights and obligations if ICE visits their workplace. Our interdisciplinary team will cover the following topics:

  • ICE Visit Response Plan: What safeguards should be in place and how should you train your employees?
  • Employers’ Rights & Obligations: What warrants are required for compliance and what rights do employers have to push back?
  • Employee Education: How should employers educate employees about their rights?
  • I-9 Compliance Best Practices: What records are employers required to provide?
  • Healthcare/HIPAA Considerations: What additional issues and HIPAA restrictions should be considered in the healthcare setting?

This webinar is designed for in-house legal counsel, compliance officers, human resources professionals, privacy officers, C-level executives, consultants and principals from all industries.
