SAFER, MORE PRIVATE, & FASTER

How it Works
  • The Work Number® from Equifax automates your employee verifications when employees are purchasing/leasing a home or a car, or requesting government benefits and more.

​

  • Our partnership with The Work Number benefits you by reducing your HR work and risks. Your employees benefit by enabling quicker access for credit and goverment aid while also helping maintain privacy.

AUTOMATED SERVICE

You can forget the paperwork. The Work Number service significantly lessens your manual verification workload.
REDUCED RISK

When you respond to verification requests directly, you may be putting your organization at risk for fraud or error. The Work Number, as an automated verification, helps lessen risk over manual HR verification.
BENEFITS EMPLOYEES

Faster and more informed decisions can improve opportunities for credit and aid.

More than 23% of all instant verifications completed through The Work Number service were completed after business hours or over the weekend.

GOVERNED BY THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT

The Work Number is governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), which helps ensure Verifiers have a valid reason to obtain employment information and employees can see who has requested their information and can dispute information that may be incorrect.

PRIVACY & SECURITY

The Work Number uses stringent security standards to help protect employee information including data encryption, physical security controls, and user identity verification. Requests are initiated by employees, usually at the time of application, and only accepted from credentialed verifiers.
