New Hire Reporting Program provides child support enforcement agencies with the information required to locate non-custodial parents and ensure they comply with child support orders, helping children receive the financial support they need.
The program also:
• Helps to prevent fraud and abuse of public assistance programs such as Medicaid and food stamps, by allowing states to cross-match their new hire database with those of other programs.
• Benefits employers bottom line by reducing and preventing fraudulent unemployment and workers compensation payments.
• Identifies and recovers fraudulent unemployment and workers compensation benefits from individuals who are employed.
• Supports labor market information and research via new hire data mart.
