A private employer who employs how many people as of July 1, 2010, must use a status verification system to hire new employees?

  1. 5

  2. 10

  3. 15

  4. 1

The correct answer is: 15

The requirement for a private employer to use a status verification system for hiring new employees is determined by the number of employees they have. In Utah, this regulation mandates that private employers with 15 or more employees, as of July 1, 2010, must utilize a status verification system, commonly known as E-Verify, to confirm the eligibility of prospective employees to work in the United States. This provision aims to ensure compliance with immigration laws and to promote lawful employment practices. Employers beneath this threshold have different requirements and may not be obligated to use the same verification systems. This regulation reflects efforts to enhance accountability in hiring practices among larger businesses in the state.
