Announcing E-Verify+
For Employers | 10.23.24
Every U.S. employer has a duty to verify its employees’ identity and work authorization documents, to help ensure its workforce is legally authorized to work in the United States. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Social Security Administration (SSA) are launching E-Verify+, a new voluntary service, to simplify this requirement.
