I believe that yes, the man was hurt on the job and his employer is liable for the man's injuries. Doesn't matter if he worked one hour or ten years.
What should be a part of this story based on this:
Quote:
Mr. Gonzalez testified that his employer did not require him to provide U.S. citizenship or residency documentation.

Apparently the illegal employee never filled out an I-9, and the employer has the temerity to bring up the fact that the employee cheated on his taxes? How did the employer know, was the employee's pay partially in cash?
Why is ICE not bringing the employer to task for hiring an illegal alien? Where's the IRS?
The employer violated the law just as much as the illegal did, and ought to pay for it.
