UCSF uses The Work Number. This is a secure, automated service run by Equifax. It helps individuals outside the University to verify someone's employment status at UCSF.  

Contact The Work Number: 800-367-5690 or visit The Work Number website.

The person requesting verification will need the following information: 

1. Employee’s Social Security number 

2. Employer code: 15975 (employer will be Regents of the University of California) 

If you are unable to find an employee or need additional help, contact the UCPath Center for a verbal verification at 855-982-7284. If you need specific forms completed, email the forms to the center. The UCPath Center is open 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Request employment verifications for former employees through The Work Number. This is for employees who have separated since January 2014.
