Since the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA) required employers to verify the identity and work eligibility of new employees, the Employment Eligibility Verification Form, or Form I-9, has been a prominent feature of the Human Resources landscape in the United States. The form must be completed for every new employee at the time of hire, and is subject to retention requirements and audit by federal agencies. As organizations have sought to save money and streamline business processes by automating the hire process, the I-9 has presented a special challenge. Many institutions, including some of our clients, have automated everything but the I-9. Having set the standard for automating Human Resources processes with its ePAF™ products, Gideon Taylor has developed an eForm-based I-9 solution that is fully regcompliant and native to PeopleTools – the GT Paperless I-9. The GT Paperless I-9 constitutes a unique solution to the challenge of automating the Form I-9. The I-9 is administered and managed in-house, stored within the PeopleSoft HCM system, and built on the flexible workflow and approval power of GT eForms. The GT Paperless I-9 is currently being implemented at both the University of Houston and the University of Utah.
