If ICE Walks Into Your Restaurant… Would Your Team Know What To Do?
This isn’t fear-mongering — it’s what’s happening right now in NC.
Restaurants are dealing with:
• Staff too scared to show up
• Missed shifts
• Kitchens short-handed
• Teams unsure of what to do if ICE shows up
• Even legal workers panicking
Here’s what every restaurant, bar, brewery & café should do today:
✅ Label all back-of-house areas “Employees Only”
✅ Keep I-9s organized in one separate binder
✅ Train staff to say ONLY: “Let me get the manager.”
✅ Don’t let ICE enter private areas without a judge-signed warrant
✅ Don’t answer questions or volunteer info
✅ Stay calm. Stay professional. Stay protected
This is about safety — not politics.
Preparation > Panic.
