  • Protecting Your Business & Workforce: Know Your Rights Workshop with the Texas Civil Rights Project

    📅 When: Wednesday, February 26, 2025 | 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM
    📍 Where: Zoom (Virtual)

    As a business owner in the service industry, protecting your workplace and supporting your team are critical, especially in today’s climate. Join Good Work Austin and the Texas Civil Rights Project (TCRP) for an essential workshop tailored to help business owners navigate their rights and responsibilities in the face of workplace visits or raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

    Key Topics Covered by TCRP:

    - What is ICE and why they may target a workplace.

    - Your rights as a business owner during an ICE raid.

    - How to recognize a valid warrant and respond appropriately.

    - Best practices to prepare your business and protect your team.

    - Resources for workers and their families to plan for potential arrests or detentions.

    The event is virtual and will feature a detailed presentation from TCRP, with time reserved at the end for a Q&A session. Bring your questions and get actionable advice directly from experts.

    This workshop is specifically designed for business owners and managers, but we welcome workers who want to learn more about their rights and how to prepare for potential scenarios involving ICE.

    Take proactive steps to protect your workplace, support your employees, and stay informed.

    🛠 Together, we can create a more informed and resilient service industry.
