The Biggest Mistakes Employers Make When ICE Shows Up Most ICE situations don’t spiral because of the audit itself. They spiral because employers panic and make avoidable mistakes. Here are the most common ones we’re seeing right now: • No clear process for I-9s • Documents scattered across systems and folders • I-9s stored inside personnel files • Managers not knowing what ICE is allowed to access • Leaders arguing or getting defensive instead of staying procedural • Employees being told “don’t talk” without understanding their rights These mistakes don’t protect your business. They increase risk. The reality is this: If you can show a consistent process and good-faith effort, most ICE interactions stay administrative, not punitive. We break down exactly what employers are doing wrong and how to fix it in our next podcast episode tomorrow with HR expert Barry Cohn. If you employ people, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
