Massachusetts S1315 aims to protect workers by enforcing stricter regulations on employers who knowingly hire unauthorized aliens.
Massachusetts S1315, titled "An Act protecting Massachusetts workers," mandates that employers verify the work authorization of employees through the federal e-verify program. Employers found to have knowingly hired unauthorized aliens face penalties, including license suspension or revocation. The bill also outlines procedures for investigating complaints, with specific penalties for knowingly filing false complaints. Employers who receive economic development incentives must participate in the e-verify program and register with it before receiving such incentives.
