Employment & Income Verification

The Salary Key is a one-time authorization code that may be required when an organization requests your income information.

Not all verification requests require a Salary Key. If one is needed, you can generate it through your employee account and provide it directly to the authorized verifier.

If you are asked to provide a salary key as your consent you must visit:

1. theworknumber.com/employees or call 800-367-2884
   (1-800-424-0253 for TTY if hearing impaired)
2. Enter the University of Texas Employer Code: 13937
3. Enter your Social Security Number
4. Enter the PIN# which will be sent to your mobile number
5. Follow the instructions to create a salary key

Important: Only share a Salary Key with an organization you trust and have authorized to access your information.

Your Employment Data Report provides information about your employment and income data maintained by The Work Number, including a record of certain verification requests.

Reviewing your report can help you understand what information is available to authorized verifiers and identify potential inaccuracies.
