Owing to recent changes made by the federal government to form I-9, it is now easier than ever for employers to complete Form I-9 with their New Hires remotely by using E-Verify. To drive E-Verify adoption, in fact, the government has even made it free to utilize.
This means that companies can now remotely onboard their remote employees without having to, as previously required, inspect the New Hire’s identification documents in person.
With it being easier than ever and free, why oh why would a company pay a compliance specialist like TrendSource to complete Virtual I-9 Verifications on their behalf?
It’s a fair question and one that we are happy to answer.
TrendSource: Compliance Experts for Certainty and Volume
There are two main reasons a company would choose to contract out its I-9 Verification services to a company like TrendSource.
First, it pays to trust experts who specialize in the field. With steep consequences for non-compliance including fines and even prison time, companies simply cannot afford to take chances with their compliance efforts. For particularly risk averse companies, it just makes good sense to contract out such an important requirement to experts.
TrendSource is a well-oiled machine when it comes to employment eligibility requirements and companies can rest comfortably with the work in experts’ hands.
Second, companies that experience a lot of turnover and thus onboard a large number of employees every month need all the help they can get when it comes to I-9s. This is particularly true for staffing agencies, food service providers, retailers, and other industries that by necessity are in a constant hiring cycle.
These business types require massive HR teams that can handle all this rote work. Operationally, this is neither cost effective nor efficient. These companies can reduce their HR footprint or even allow their existing HR team to focus on company improvement initiatives.
Either way, finding a trusted I-9 partner can only help a business’ efficiency and operational consistency.
