86% of C-Suite executives say their workforce strategies rely on workers with temporary visas
The U.S. needs a modern workplace immigration system that allows employers to access top global talent while protecting workers.
SHRM Supports
- Access to Talent: Policies that ensure employers have access to visas to recruit, hire, transfer and retain top talent, especially those educated and trained in the United States.
- Employment Verification: One reliable, entirely electronic employment verification system that integrates the Form I-9, provides users a good faith defense and is only for new hires.
- Pre-Certified Employers: A “Trusted Employer” program to create efficiencies for employees, employers and government.
As employers work to close the skills gap, it is critical they have the tools to hire a legal workforce and the ability to access top talent no matter where it is found in the world.
