SOUTH CAROLINA REGULATORS AGREE TO MODIFY COMPLIANCE AUDITS
From South Carolina Lawyers Weekly:
Employers critical of recent state immigration audits have reached an agreement with the S.C. Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation with the help of employment lawyers from several of the state's largest firms.
Since July 1, LLR has conducted random audits of businesses to ensure compliance with a recently enacted provision of the S.C. Illegal Immigration Reform Act.
*****
The S.C. Chamber of Commerce and several of the state's largest law firms, including Nexsen Pruet,Ogletree Deakins and The McNair Law Firm, worked with LLR to resolve the issues, said David Dubberly, who chairs Nexsen Pruet's employment and labor law practice group.
A Nexsen Pruet update e-mailed to clients on Sept. 30 said that LLR had agreed to give employers at least three days written notice of audits. Also, LLR agreed to no longer inspect records of employees hired before July 1.
