Course Overview
As your company grows or evolves, there can be serious implications for the foreign nationals in your workforce. In this course, you will explore the many considerations you need to keep in mind in the event your company undertakes a merger or acquisition. What if your company needs to downsize? Examine the ways a termination can change an employee's immigration status and what you can do to assist a worker who wants to remain in the U.S.
You will learn how foreign national workers have the right to unionize and what to avoid when they engage in union activities. You will also discover why even undocumented workers are eligible for Workers' Compensation and why that could be a good thing for all employers.
It is recommended to only take this course if you have completed “Hiring Foreign Nationals” or have equivalent experience.
