Recent settlement agreements between the Department of Justice (DOJ) and private companies have shown that DOJ will not tolerate employers discriminating against foreign persons – even where export controls might appear a concern. At the same time, the export agencies have specific requirements that mandate certain export-controlled information to be restricted from foreign person employees and thus pushing companies to evaluate whether certain positions should be limited to persons only.

This webinar will cover:

• Overview of the relevant laws and regulations impacting the hiring of foreign persons in the United States
• Challenges & best practices
• Recent cases
• Common scenarios

Who should attend this webinar:

• Compliance professionals
• General counsels and in-house lawyers
• HR professionals
• Immigration lawyers

This webinar will provide PowerPoint slides and include commentary from Olga Torres, who counsels clients on compliance with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and the various embargo and sanctions programs administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). She regularly represents clients before the Department of State Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), and the Department of the Treasury.
