Employees close to retirement can now request that PERS verify the data it uses to calculate the employee’s benefit amount at retirement. As part of that data verification process, PERS requires that employers verify that information they report regarding the employee’s employment dates, subject salaries, and unused sick leave is correct.
When you click on a member’s SSN listed on the Work List and that member’s Work Item Type is “Employer Data Verification Request” (highlighted by the box), EDX redirects you to the Employer Data Verification Request screen.
