If you work with outside staffing agencies, both sides have some responsibility for ensuring that your workers are legal.

If a small business needs temporary help and uses a staffing firm to obtain hourly workers, who will be subject to penalties if the workers turn out to be illegal aliens?

Is it the small business or the staffing firm?
