The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that, for a limited period of time, it will not seek sanctions against employers who hire employees who are presently unable to provide proper eligibility documentation as a result of Hurricane Katrina. This partial waiver applies to individuals evacuated or displaced as a result of Hurricane Katrina who are otherwise eligible for employment.
