E-Verify

Work authorization check

E-Verify is an online system that allows U.S. employers to confirm whether employees are legally authorized to work in the country.

The system checks information from Form I-9 against government databases.

Some states require E-Verify for certain employers; others make it voluntary.

The company uses E-Verify for all new hires.
