Is This Form Right For You?
Use This Form If:
- Individuals who have been involved in a workplace incident may need this form to allow their attorney to access employment records. This can be crucial for building a case related to workplace injuries or disputes.
- Situations requiring verification of employment history often arise during legal proceedings, such as divorce or child custody cases. This authorization allows attorneys to gather necessary employment details to support their client's position.

- – In situations where the employer has a policy against releasing employment information, this form may not be effective. Employers may have strict guidelines that prevent them from disclosing any details, regardless of authorization.
