35、lds, restaurant kitchens and construction sites. Theyre in the country illegally, but the employers who hire them are also breaking the law.But the presence of illegal workers on a home renovation crew, and the contractors insistence on payment in cash dont dissuade potential clients. As one contrac
36、tor points out, “When you go into a restaurant, do you ask if everybody is legal in the kitchen? No! You know, people dont do that. When you go to get your car fixed, no. So nobody does it in construction, either.“That said, the contractor - who prefers not to use his name - figures lie pays his wor

They want to pick somebody up and just work them for $4 an hour.“Whatever the wages, operating on a cash-on
38、ly basis saves contractors like him on payroll, taxes and insurance. Still plenty of employers do pay taxes and insurance on illegal workers.Many workers carry fake Social Security and green cards, and when theyre hired, employers file those fake numbers with the federal government. There is a way t
39、he employer can tell if those numbers are fake. As Chris Bentley of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services explains, all it takes is a toll free phone call, which “allows them to, in a matter of seconds, take the information and verify it against 450 million social security administration fil
40、es, and an additional 65 million Department of Homeland Security files.“But few employers make the call. The program is voluntary and only 4,400 employers are signed up nationwide. Companies cant be held responsible for failing to spot forged documents. And although federal law prohibits employing i
41、llegal workers, it is rarely enforced, according to Kevin Jeffrey of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Los Angeles. “We can fine employers,“ he says, but points out “it has been an issue where a lot of those fines are settled for pennies on the dollar, and if you got a multi-million dollar busi
42、ness, whats a $10,000 fine?“He says theres a larger issue for American society to decide: “do we really want employers to go to jail for doing this or do we want to just do what weve been doing and winking at them and, you know, kind of letting it go by the board?“For example, Mr. Jeffrey says, his
43、400 agents oversee a huge district that includes most of Southern California and parts of Nevada.

With
