Interest in the U.S. federal government�s �Basic Pilot� Employment
Verification Program for I-9 compliance continues to gain momentum,
as evidenced by the record response to a recent HR.com webcast
hosted by TALX Corporation (NASDAQ: TALX). Registration for the
one-hour online learning event was at capacity with 1,550
participants, as HR professionals from across the United States
eagerly sought more information on the �Basic Pilot� Program and
how to achieve electronic I-9 compliance. Originally broadcast live
on November 29, 2006, the webcast�s panel featured Gerri Ratliff,
chief of the Verification Division, U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services; Scott Mezistrano, senior manager of
Government Relations, American Payroll Association and Dave Fowler,
senior director of Product Strategy, TALX Corporation. An archive
of the TALX webcast is now available at no charge by visiting the
TALX website at www.talx.com. It is also available at no charge on
HR.com www.hr.com for all community members. HR.com membership is
free and includes access to all live and archived webcasts, blogs,
discussion forums, polls and a library of over 25,000 HR-related
articles. �Whether you�re a large employer with multiple offices
across the U.S., or a small business, the I-9 situation represents
risk and liability,� commented Dave Fowler of TALX. �Taking
aggressive steps to better define and automate this part of the HR
process can directly impact an organization�s bottom-line.� The
electronic I-9 has been a hot topic since June 2006 when a new
interim rule was issued by the Department of Homeland Security
allowing employers to complete, sign and store their required
Employment Eligibility Verification I-9 forms electronically. The
�Basic Pilot� Program allows a company to reduce risk by verifying
social security numbers and work authorizations. Electronic I-9s
provide other benefits such as measuring compliance, identifying
missing I-9s, online reverification notices, and removing old I-9s
per retention requirements. Employers can also convert existing
paper I-9s to electronic storage to eliminate manual processes,
measure compliance across the organization, and easily respond to
internal or external audits. The interactive webcast, entitled The
Federal �Basic Pilot� Program and Electronic I-9 Compliance,
addresses several key issues surrounding electronic I-9s including
implementation options, best practices, and compliance with the
interim rules. TALX Corporation�s electronic I-9 services are
designed to alleviate the difficulties involved complying with
federal regulations. TALX helps employers maintain compliance with
immigration regulations, while eliminating paper and manual
processes. About TALX Corporation TALX Corporation, based in St.
