Louisiana employers subject to penalties for hiring illegal aliens

Under a new Louisiana law, penalties will be assessed against Louisiana employers who hire aliens who are not entitled to lawfully reside or work in the United States. To avoid the penalties for such hires, employers must satisfy one of the following: (1) verification of status by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services E-Verify System or (2) photo identification and one other specified type of documentation, such as a birth, naturalization or citizenship certificate, alien registration card or U.S. immigration form I-94 (with employment authorized stamp). Violations of this law carry progressive fines from $500 to $2500 per employee and suspension of operating permits.
