This creates a perverse incentive for companies to seek out and preferentially hire undocumented workers. Companies can pay them less and ignore any and all labor laws in their treatment of undocumented workers because the workers have no legal recourse. This also has the effect of driving down wages and labor standards even for the native workers.
This situation can only be remedied by requiring companies to obey labor laws with undocumented workers, including paying out worker's comp. If this is not implemented, then employers will never face any meaningful consequences for this behavior and it will continue unabated.

The only other alternative is heavy punitive fines for the companies, but that is mostly wishful thinking in the current political climate.

This company knowingly hired an illegal, but apparently our laws on this are so weak they brazenly can admit they hired an illegal in order to get him deported so they don't have to pay him?
Anyone in Florida want to take a moment to tell their governor how fucked up that is?
