Automated Employment Verifications: The Work Number

                

Buying a home? Moving into an apartment? Leasing a car? Establishing Credit? Applying for a Loan? Verifying past employment?
 
Wayne State University uses The Work Number® to provide automated employment and income verifications on our employees.

The Work Number is an automated service that provides you with the ability to quickly provide proof of your employment or income. You benefit from having control of the process, since you authorize access to your information. The Work Number provides verification services to over 80 million employees. It is widely known to mortgage lenders, banks, apartment complexes and others who may need proof of your employment or income, and it is easy for them to use.

The Work Number can be used anytime, anywhere - available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
