2008-04-03 IFCO Senior Managers Indicted For Immigrant Worker Conspiracy (By Chaille Brindley)
Bad news on the immigration front continues for IFCO Systems North America, the country’s largest pallet recycler. Five managers were recently indicted for conspiring to harbor and transport illegal immigrants from 2004 to 2006. The latest indictments came almost a year after a number of former managers pled guilty to charges related to hiring illegal immigrants. Beyond simply hiring illegal aliens, the U.S. government maintains that IFCO managers set up an elaborate infrastructure to forge documents, recruit, house, transport and provide services for non-authorized workers.
