Worker verification: how Ployer checks what matters
Before you hire, you need to know who you are hiring. Ployer runs structured identity and document checks, verifies experience and language claims, and shows what is verified and what is not — without ever exposing sensitive documents.
The short answer
Worker verification at Ployer means structured identity and document checks, experience and language claim checks, and a document vault where every file carries a visible status: pending, approved or rejected. Public profiles show only what is safe to share — no passport or medical data. Ployer verifies what it can check and says clearly that it does not replace official government verification.
How verification works on Ployer
Worker creates a profile
Identity details, skills, experience, languages and availability are captured in a structured form.
Documents are uploaded
Passport, medical and other files are uploaded to the private document vault.
Checks run
Ployer performs structured identity and document checks plus experience and language claim checks.
Statuses are assigned
Every document carries a visible status — pending, approved or rejected.
The profile goes live
Only privacy-safe information appears on the public profile; sensitive files stay in the vault.
Who is worker verification for?
Verification serves both sides of the hiring decision: employers who need to trust who they are bringing into their home or business, and workers who want their qualifications and history shown accurately instead of claimed verbally.
- Employers hiring domestic staff directly and through agencies
- Households replacing a worker after a bad experience
- Agencies that need document-ready candidates for client placements
- Workers who want a verifiable record of skills and experience
What exactly does Ployer check?
Verification is scoped honestly: Ployer checks what it can check, and says when it cannot. The table below is the full list of verification activity on the platform.
| Check | What it covers | How it is shown |
|---|---|---|
| Identity check | Structured identity details on the profile | Identity information appears on the profile |
| Document checks | Passport, medical and other required files reviewed for completeness and validity | Status per document: pending, approved or rejected |
| Experience claims | Prior work history and duration cross-checked where sources allow | Experience shown on the profile with its check state |
| Language claims | Stated languages and proficiency levels | Languages listed with the claim state visible |
| Availability | Earliest start date and location preferences | Shown on the profile for matching |

What do document statuses mean?
Every document in a worker's vault carries one of three statuses, and the status is visible to the parties who need it. A 'pending' document is under review; 'approved' means it has passed Ployer's checks; 'rejected' means it failed and the reason is on record.
| Status | Meaning | What happens next |
|---|---|---|
| Pending | Document uploaded, under review | Checks run; status updates or a request for a new file |
| Approved | Document passed Ployer's checks | Visible as verified to authorised parties |
| Rejected | Document failed the checks | Reason on record; worker can resubmit a valid file |
Document statuses apply to passport, medical and contract files. Official approvals remain with the relevant authority.
What shows on a public profile?
Public profiles are privacy-safe by design: they show skills, experience, languages, availability and verification state — never the passport, medical data or full identity documents themselves. Sensitive files live in the account-level vault, accessible only to authorised parties.
- Public profile: skills, experience, languages, availability
- Verification state shown without exposing files
- Passport and medical data stay in the private vault
- Only authorised parties see sensitive documents
What Ployer verification does not do
Stated plainly: Ployer does not replace official government verification. Permits, visas, medical clearances and background records issued by LMRA, Musaned, MOHRE and other authorities are their decisions, made through their processes. Ployer's checks add transparency before you commit; they cannot certify a worker the way a government can, and they do not guarantee that a hire will work out.

Common questions
It means the profile has passed Ployer's structured checks: identity details, document review, and experience and language claims as far as they can be checked. It does not mean government certification.
No. Ployer does not replace official verification by LMRA, Musaned, MOHRE or other authorities. Permits, visas and official records are their decisions through their processes.
Yes — every document carries a status: pending, approved or rejected. The status is visible to authorised parties, and public profiles never expose the files themselves.
No. Sensitive documents stay in the private vault, accessible only to authorised parties. Public profiles show skills, experience, languages, availability and verification state.
The document is marked rejected with a reason on record, and the worker can resubmit a valid file for re-checking.
Claims are checked against available sources as far as they can be verified, and the check state is shown on the profile. What cannot be checked is not presented as verified.
No. Verification confirms what can be checked on paper. Character, fit and day-to-day performance are decided through interviews and the working relationship itself.
Yes. Agencies shortlist document-ready, verified candidates for client job orders, and the same statuses and privacy rules apply.
