Labor and employment attorneys Schaun Henry and Ursula Siverling presented at the Pennsylvania Association of School Personnel Administrators (PASPA)’s I-9 immigration compliance webinar on June 22.
The webinar covered changes to I-9 enforcement and how they could impact employers. While I-9s have been required to verify employee identity and work authorization since 1986, ICE has now reclassified a number of technical violations as substantive violations, which are not eligible for the 10-day cure period.
Schaun provides representation and counseling to employers on a wide range of labor and employment matters. He defends employers against discrimination charges before the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and in federal and state courts.
Ursula provides regular counseling for employers on a variety of employment-related issues, including workplace discrimination and harassment, family and medical leave, workplace accommodations, employee relations issues, employment agreements, wage and hour issues, policy drafting, and best practices for litigation avoidance. She also conducts training for clients and workplace investigations.
