How does The Work Number work?

The Work Number is an automated employment verification service that provides accurate and timely information to organizations that need to verify a person's employment history. It works by gathering employment data from thousands of employers across various industries and securely storing it in a central database. When an authorized verifier, such as a lender or employer, requests employment verification for an individual, The Work Number fetches the relevant data from its database and delivers it electronically. This service ensures that the information provided is up-to-date and eliminates the need for manual verification, saving time and effort for both the verifier and the individual. It simplifies the employment verification process, improves efficiency, and maintains data confidentiality and security.
