Verify Employment for an Active Employee

The University provides an on-line system which can be accessed 24 hours a day 7 days a week, enabling a third party to verify your employment or employment and wages, at any time of the day and any day of the week.

To keep the system secure, the employee is required to authorize the third party to receive their information. This can be done via the Employment Verification System (EVS). Active employees must use this approach for all employment verifications. Please read through the Frequently Asked Questions to understand how this process works for ACTIVE Employees.

If you need technical assistance with the on-line system, please contact the UIC HR Helpdesk at (312) 413-4848
