2026-02-21 03:13 Diff

Universal Background Screening (UBS) has partnered with WorkBright, a leading employment compliance platform, to deliver an enhanced I-9 verification solution that helps organizations onboard faster while maintaining full compliance.

Addressing Real I-9 Challenges

For companies hiring at scale, especially in regulated industries, employment eligibility verification can become a significant bottleneck. Manual I-9 processes introduce data entry errors, slow down new hire onboarding, and create audit risks that compliance teams work hard to avoid.

UBS selected WorkBright as its preferred I-9 partner because of their proven track record and technology. WorkBright has processed over 4 million I-9 forms with zero audit fines and maintains a 95% instant E-Verify close rate. Their I-9 platform digitizes the entire process while maintaining the accuracy and security that employers need.

How WorkBright’s I-9 Technology Works

WorkBright’s platform modernizes I-9 completion through intelligent automation and mobile accessibility:

  • OCR document scanning and autofill capabilities reduce manual entry errors
  • Real-time field validation catches mistakes before submission
  • Document authenticity analysis helps identify fraudulent or altered documents
  • Patented geo-verified remote Section 2 verification enables compliant remote hiring
  • Automated E-Verify case creation with complete audit trail reporting
  • Full process indemnification for added compliance protection

What This Means for Your Organization

By integrating WorkBright’s I-9 solution with UBS background screening services, clients gain a unified onboarding workflow that addresses one of hiring’s most complex compliance requirements.

This partnership helps employers:

  • Complete onboarding in minutes instead of days
  • Reduce I-9 errors and audit exposure
  • Provide new hires with a simple, mobile-friendly experience
  • Maintain consistent compliance across all locations and hiring scenarios
  • A Shared Commitment to Responsible Hiring

WorkBright brings more than technology to this partnership. As a certified B-Corp, they share UBS’s focus on helping employers build compliant, efficient hiring processes that work for everyone involved.

UBS clients can now add this I-9 solution to their background screening and onboarding programs, ensuring compliance requirements support hiring momentum rather than slow it down.
