Employment Verification Services

Manage operational risk. 

In today's complex hiring environment—particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic—workforces are more geographically distributed, the employee onboarding process is challenging, and many employers have shifted to remote hiring practices.  

Compliance with employment verification requirements in this changed landscape has become a moving target—but adhering to evolving laws and regulations has never been more important.  

Employers who violate these laws are subject to significant civil fines and penalties, not to mention public relations issues and interruptions to day-to-day business operations in the event of an audit.  

From audits, guidance and training, to advanced technology tools, Fragomen provides comprehensive employment verification services to help you minimize liability and manage your operational risk. 

Here’s how: 

Employment verification compliance fueled by experience.

      • Sophisticated online software solutions
      • Guidance on employment verification compliance and best practices
      • Process, procedure and policy review and development
      • Preventative employment verification audit and review

United States 

We have developed solutions for I-9 completion that combine unparalleled flexibility with the level of trust that you would expect from a leading law firm and the immediacy and responsiveness that the government requires. 

Fragomen’s WorkRight US I-9 technology is a flexible, end-to-end Form I-9 software tool that helps companies address the complexities and challenges of today's government compliance requirements. When employees have access to a modern, streamlined, simplified employment verification solution, employers increase their level of compliance and minimize their exposure to risk. 

Services include: 

      • I-9 completion, signature, secure storing and tracking
      • Informative, configurable notifications throughout the employment verification process
      • Audits and conversion of historical data
      • Legal guidance and HelpDesk support
      • Integration with E-Verify
      • I-9 policy review and consulting
      • Ongoing training and legal updates
      • I-9 and E-Verify audit and compliance support by our Government Strategies and Compliance Group 

We continuously modernize our WorkRight US I-9 technology because we take the employment verification process—and the employee experience—extremely seriously.

 

United Kingdom

Fragomen’s WorkRight UK solution helps UK employers compliantly navigate the process of verifying an employee’s right to work, and applies to UK visa holders, British nationals and Irish nationals. WorkRight uses facial recognition and fraud-detection software to increase employers’ compliance and minimize exposure to risk. By incorporating it at the start of the hiring process or during the course of employment, this tool provides a simple and fast way for individuals to prove their right to work in the UK.

Key benefits include:

      • Initiating single or multiple requests
      • Deterring identity fraud through use of identification and facial recognition technology, while helping meet compliance obligations
      • Creating consistency in your right-to-work checks, saving time and reducing risk
      • Achieving process efficiencies that help minimize costs and administrative burden for employers
      • Ability to perform checks consistent with the latest UK legislation
      • Access to Fragomen’s wider immigration support teams when needed, to ensure employees transition seamlessly into the UK

Fragomen WorkRight is underpinned by Experian data sources and ensures checks are consistent with the latest Home Office guidelines—saving you time and giving you peace of mind that your employees genuinely have the right to work in the UK.
