Tyson joins Immigration Department's IMAGE program

IMAGE is short for 'ICE Mutual Agreement between Government and Employers.' The program enables businesses, if they meet rigorous standards, to voluntarily partner with the federal government to ensure they are employing people who are legally authorized to work in the United States.

At a signing ceremony in Washington, D.C., Tyson Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer Ken Kimbro said, "We believe our participation confirms to our customers, plant communities and others that Tyson uses best hiring practices to maintain a lawful workforce. We also believe this partnership will enhance our ability to collaborate with government officials on immigration-related matters."
