On April 30, 2023, the University of California began using The Work Number, a third-party employment verification vendor, to verify employment and income for student employees. Student employees no longer need to contact the UCPath Center for employment verification.
The UCPath Center notified student employees by email and provided instructions for opting out and managing data stored in The Work Number. Student employees may opt out (opens in new window) using UCPath online.
- For student employees opting out by 5 p.m. on April 30, no information will be submitted to The Work Number.
- Student employees opting out after 5 p.m. on April 30 will be removed from the daily file sent to The Work Number within one business day. Information sent to The Work Number prior to opting out will remain in The Work Number database.
More information (opens in new window) for all employees about using The Work Number is available on UCnet. Questions from student employees can be directed to the UCPath Center:
- Call (855) 982-7284
- Use the chat feature or request a callback in UCPath online
- Submit an inquiry using Ask UCPath
Help is available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., except on UC holidays.
