The growth of the immigrant population has been a double-edged sword for many employers. People moving to this country for employment opportunities usually have an incredible work ethic, and for the most part, they are appreciative of the opportunity to live here and to be part of the American dream. But the ugly truth is that a lot of new immigrants are not here legally. And as this issue has become more polarizing politically, employers who do not check social security numbers for potential employees run the risk of being punished. That’s why it is important for all companies to hire a professional to thoroughly check social security numbers whenever they consider hiring a new employee.
