Employee identity and trace screening
Employee Bundle for South African screening
Run one employee-screening check that combines Home Affairs ID photo verification with address, contact and employer context where available. The result gives authorised hiring and workforce teams a single report for comparing the supplied identity with the source data returned.
Run a manual check in the dashboard or connect the same bundle to an internal screening workflow through the VerifyNow API.
Available trace fields depend on the source record. Treat employer information as screening context that may require independent confirmation.
Home Affairs supplies identity data
Review the returned ID details and official record photograph where the source provides one.
Full trace context adds depth
See available address history, contact numbers and employer-related evidence in the same run.
The report keeps the result together
Use the dashboard report or API response with its status, returned fields and transaction reference.
What is included
One check brings the screening evidence together.
Candidate information can arrive across forms, messages and documents. The Employee Bundle creates one review point for the identity-source response and the Consumer/Person Trace context returned for the submitted ID number.
