Employment Authorization and IRCA Compliance Training for Employers

The U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC) funds grants for the purpose of conducting public education programs about: (1) the rights afforded potential victims of employment discrimination; and, (2) the responsibilities of employers under the anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. §1324b. Funded projects design and implement public education campaigns to address immigration related unfair employment discrimination by educating workers, employers, and the general public about the anti-discrimination provision of the INA.

For over a decade, Nachman & Associates, P.C. (N&A) has been educating employers and employees about proper employment verification procedures and immigration related employment discrimination issues in connection with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 ('IRCA'). N&A will use award funds to reach and educate employers and employees throughout the state of New Jersey and ultimately across the entire United States through training programs held on-site at Community Colleges throughout the State and at various New Jersey corporate offices, as well as providing web-based training to participants across the country.

N&A will utilize the immigration law experts on staff to conduct free regional public seminars within the State's five major metropolitan areas. The seminars will be 2-3 hours in duration, or in some cases they will be all day sessions. N&A is committed to providing practical information to employers particularly as it relates to national origin and citizenship discrimination, document abuse, and general IRCA compliance procedures. N&A will also offer a free public seminar via webinar. The webinar will incorporate a pre-approved PowerPoint presentation and training video which would permit employers to respond to workplace scenarios, ask questions, and receive accurate information.
