How WORKIUM Verifies Employers and Job Vacancies

On this page, you will learn how WORKIUM verifies employers and vacancies before publication, what information we check, under which conditions a vacancy may be rejected or removed, how we respond to user reports, and what we do to keep information up to date. 

Why WORKIUM verifies vacancies 

Working abroad — is not an ordinary online purchase. A person makes a decision that may affect their financial situation, place of residence, and safety. This is why we verify vacancies before publication, so that candidates have the most complete, transparent, and reliable information possible about the employer, working conditions, and accommodation before making an employment decision. 

How vacancies are verified at WORKIUM 

Every vacancy undergoes a multi-level internal review before it is published on the website. The process consists of several consecutive stages, each with its own assessment criteria.

First, the employer undergoes a legal review. We check the company's documents, registration details, and right to conduct its activities, and we conclude a cooperation agreement. Only after this stage has been completed successfully do we proceed to the vacancy review.

We then check whether vacancies comply with WORKIUM's rules and standards. We analyse the information provided by the employer and review the vacancy description, working conditions, pay level, work schedule, candidate requirements, and other important details.

Next, we verify the accommodation conditions. The WORKIUM team may personally visit the accommodation or carry out a remote inspection by video call with the employer's representative. We obtain photographs, video materials, and other information needed to assess the actual living conditions.

After all review stages have been completed, the WORKIUM team summarises the results and decides whether to publish the vacancy. If the employer, vacancy, working conditions, or accommodation do not meet our requirements, the vacancy is not published. If the review is completed successfully, the vacancy is published on the website together with a detailed description of the working and living conditions, photographs, video materials, and other information required for the candidate to make an informed decision.

When a vacancy may be rejected or removed 

Before the vacancy is published

Every vacancy is reviewed before publication. If we determine during the review that the employer or vacancy does not meet WORKIUM's requirements, the vacancy is not published on the website.

This may happen, for example, if:

• the employer provided false or incomplete information;

• documents or information required for verification are missing;

• the working conditions, accommodation, or pay level do not match what was stated;

• the vacancy violates legal requirements or WORKIUM's rules;

• other circumstances that may create risks for candidates are identified during the review.

If we identify inaccuracies during the review or require additional confirmation, we contact the employer for clarification. The vacancy is not published until the review is complete.

After the vacancy is published

The vacancy review does not end after publication. We continue to monitor whether the information remains current, review reports from candidates, and conduct a new review when necessary.

If, after publication, we discover that the information in a vacancy is no longer accurate, the working conditions have changed, the employer is violating the cooperation rules, or confirmed complaints are received, the vacancy may be temporarily hidden until the review is complete or permanently removed from the website.

In some cases, a vacancy may be temporarily hidden while we clarify the information or conduct an additional review. If the violations are not confirmed or the employer corrects the identified issues, the vacancy may be published again.

Every report concerning potentially inaccurate information or violations is reviewed by the WORKIUM team. If the information is confirmed, we take appropriate measures to protect candidates and keep the information on the website up to date.
