In compliance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, Clark requires that each new person hired in any employment category in a paid status completes the required documentation and is validated through e-verify.  This includes an I-9 (Employment Eligibility Verification) form attesting that the new employee is either a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or foreign national who has permission to work in the U.S. The new employee must produce specific documents which verify identity and authorization\/permission to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For all non-academic appointments, the verification process and filing of I-9 forms will take place in the department or in central Human Resources. In the case of academic appointments and student employment, the verification process is conducted by the department which originates the appointment, or in central Human Resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Questions relating to this process may be directed to the Human Resources office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
