Employment verifications your employees can approve or deny.
MyEmployment replaces The Work Number for your current and former workforce verifications. You pay nothing and can earn revenue share.
Connects to the payroll and HRIS systems you already run.
All product names, logos and trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Listing indicates supported connectivity, not partnership or endorsement. If your system is not listed, a one-on-one API is the alternative.
Your workforce's records earn a fee. Most employers never see it.
Employers release about 200 million employment verifications a year.1
When a lender, landlord, or collector checks a job or a paycheck, the answer usually comes from The Work Number.3 More than 5 million companies contribute records to it, by Equifax's own account.4 Equifax has described revenue sharing with payroll, HR software, pension, and benefits administrator partners.5 Most employers do not share in the verification revenue.
Three steps. Your employees stay in the loop.
- You connect your workforceA payroll sync every payroll cycle, or a one-on-one API. Your company chooses the method of access.
- A verifier requests a record, and paysLenders, landlords, and screening companies pay for each verification.
- Your employee gets the chance to decideEmployees on the app get each request on their phone and the chance to approve or deny it. Every request and its outcome is recorded.
What it costs your company: nothing.
Verifiers pay for verifications. Your company pays no platform fee and can earn a share of what verifiers pay for your workforce, paid monthly while you are on MyEmployment.
Every revenue share is negotiated individually. For a large employer, up to $500K a year is an illustration, not a ceiling.
