Verification of Employment

Learn how to verify King County employment through our partner service, The Work Number. For current and former King County employees.

King County partners with The Work Number, an Income and Employment Verification service, to meet all verification of employment needs. This ensures speedy, secure, auditable, and legally compliant responses that protect the personal information of our employees and meet the needs of verifiers more quickly.

In order to use the service, users will need to register as either a commercial entity, government entity, or employee. There are self-service features available free for employees, but The Work Number charges a standard fee for verification requested by other entities (for example, banks, mortgage companies, financial institutions, prospective employers, landlords).
