President Trump’s new focus on the deportation of immigrants puts on companies in the United States and sets one Special spotlight In a retail chain near a recently top -class raid: Home Depot.
At the beginning of this month, agents of the immigration and customs authority (ICE) Day worker outside of A home depot in a predominantly Latino district in Los Angeles. The next day, a separate protest was created outside of a home depot location in another part of the city. Although the retailer does not work directly with day workers, the area outside the store has long been a place where people can find themselves in the hope of finding work.
In response to these raids, Home Depot gave employees new guidelines about what to do if ICE appears. Bloomberg First reported. Home Depot confirms Assets that the business employees have to report on an incident with ice -involved incidents as soon as this happens. Workers in the entire chain were reminded of avoiding interactions with agents for their own security. And regional managers at places affected by raids in Los Angeles allow workers who feel disturbed by the robbery to go for the day with full payment, even though this is not a company directive.
“We are not aware of one of these immigration enforcements in advance,” says a Home Depot spokesman Assets.
It is likely that ice all over the country will continue to intensify and even intensify in the coming weeks and months. Trump wrote on social media post On Sunday, ICE agents would “do everything in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the largest mass deportation program in history”.
This means that we probably see that other companies create internal guidelines with their workforce and share what to do when Ice agents disturb the business. And of course, even if a workforce is not directly affected by an attack, people may have friends and family members who are something that employers should take into account when it comes to taking into account the morals of their workers.
“There may only be some employers on the side and do not necessarily use the plans. previously told Assets. “With the ongoing dynamic about immigration, employers have to take the possibility of raids seriously.”
