Hillary Hess, Director, Regulator Policy Division of the Department of Commerce has provided an opinion that in the above mentioned scenario though the staffing company
 has control over the employment of the foreign national but does not 
have control over technology or source code that is provided to the 
foreign national by the third party client, the third party client is 
required to obtain authorization for a deemed export that might occur 
when the third party client provides the foreign national with access to
 technology or source code subject to the EAR.

Immigration is complicated.We can help. Immigration Direct has empowered thousands of immigrants to successfully prepare their US immigration applications. We make it easy so you can do it yourself. You could work through USCIS forms and requirements on your own, but using Immigration Direct is easier, more accurate and less stressful.
Immigration issues in general tend to get dicey if even a few things are out of order. The situation is ripe for exploitation of workers given the weakness in position they have. While they may go to authorities, there can be significant lag time between the complaint and actual action about it.
You are right Lulaine, especially with the unprecedented 221g's issued by the Consulates, Labor Audits, RFE's, etc. It establishes the fact that the qualified workers are exploited, which is actually bad for US Economy
