There already is; they are called work visas. The only problem is, once a worker is here legally, they expect to be paid a real wage. Then withholding must be paid, and the employer's share of SS, and FICA. So once again the employer seeks out illegals who will work off the books, and for less than the worker with a valid visa.
The only way to stop the cycle is to make it so expensive for the employer,who gets caught, that it not worth the risk.
