CRS on Immigration-Related Worksite Enforcement: Performance Measures

"The data provided here on Final Orders, administrative fines, administrative and criminal arrests, criminal indictments and prosecutions, and criminal fines offer a way to assess DHS’s worksite enforcement strategy over the years and in its current form. More broadly, it can be argued that the ultimate test for any approach to worksite enforcement by DHS or DOL is whether it helps reduce the size of the unauthorized labor force in the United States." - CRS, June 23, 2015.
