Employment Search
As investigators we are increasingly asked to locate assets, perform an employment search or verify employment. Locating assets such as, real-estate, vehicles, and associated business is easy and can be done with a Simple Background Check. Locating bank accounts and employment searches are difficult to say the least.
With laws concerning bank account searches (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act), this type of investigation is only asking for trouble unless you hire a professional that knows and abides by the numerous Federal and State laws that govern this practice (more on this in a future blog).
One of the highest requested and performed search in the industry is the Employment Locate Search. This is a search where we are asked to locate an ACTIVE employer typically to satisfy a judgement or child support debt. While this is a popular search the process is very tedious and time consuming. There simply is not one source for all of this information, The IRS and State government agencies will not share their data with the public sector.
The Work Number is the largest provider of automated employment and income verifications in the U.S. Over 1,000 employers contract with The Work Number to provide verifications, including well over half of the Fortune 500.
The Work Number allows employees to provide proof of their employment or income anytime of the day, every day of the year – anytime they need to. No more need for faxing, mailing, or phone-calling that slows down the closing of loans or other employee business that requires a verification of employment.
Over 50,000 entities have established accounts with The Work Number to perform verifications. These entities include 6,000 social service agencies, including HUD, Social Service Administration, and public agencies in all 50 states. Over 50,000 commercial entities, including some of the largest mortgage lenders in the U.S., contract with The Work Number to receive verifications.
The biggest problem with The Work Number? You MUST already know who the employer is! Essentially this service is nothing more than a Employment Verification Source and they must have a contract in place with the person's employer in order to verify their information.
There is only ONE way to perform a successful Employment Search, that is hire a professional. The rates for locating employment range from $125 to $200 for locating ACTIVE employment. Normally there is a minimum or no hit fee of $25 retained by the investigator for their efforts if there is no active employment found.
