Show Notes

You get a knock at the door. Your heart is beating in your ears. You knew this day could come but you weren’t sure when. You approach the door, hand trembling to open it. Then you see the government officials asking you for I-9 documents!

This doesn’t have to turn into a horror movie. In today’s episode, Chuck and John discuss the importance of I-9 documents and ensuring they are handled properly to avoid fines. In that discussion, you will hear a story about a company that did not have best practices in place and they ended up paying a hefty sum for that.

There are some big announcements in our episode today! If you’re wanting to have a more in-depth, support experience with The Team at HR Stories, you can now join the membership program at the Founder’s rate! More information at https://teamathrstories.com/membership/.

In the HR News segment, the team touches on the following topics and more:

  • Flexibility in remote and hybrid work becoming more and more needed for retention
  • Being aware of where background checks are coming from

The viewpoints expressed by the characters in the stories are not necessarily that of The Team at HR Stories. The stories are shared to present various, real-world scenarios and share how they were handled by policy and, at times, law. Chuck and John are not lawyers and always recommend working with an employment lawyer to address concerns.
