Hiring, Employment History, References, and Employment Eligibility
Sets the hiring steps: application, interview and references; verification of employment or contract history (required of homemaker and companion registrants and adopted by the licensed agency as its own standard), with two documented attempts as diligent effort; employment eligibility verification on Form I-9 and, for employers with 25 or more employees, E-Verify within 3 business days; and a conditional offer so no one sees a client before every check is done.
