WORK EXPERIENCE VERIFICATION FORM REQUIRED


Registered unlicensed individuals, as part of renewing their registration, must provide verification of their employment by a licensed
contractor or registered employer during the registration period of July 1 to June 30. This form reports the verified hours and is adapted
for use by unlicensed individuals registered to perform plumbing work. The reason for verifying work hours each year along with renewing
a registration is so the registered individual does not have to verify these hours when applying for a license examination. Verifying hours
annually when renewing a registration enables the department to gradually qualify an individual for examination, which makes for quicker
approvals. Please submit a separate work experience form for each year of experience.

Employer Information (mandatory information if business is licensed in Minnesota)


• Enter the employer’s business name, address, license or registration number, contact’s phone number, and email address.
(NOTE: License number is mandatory, if business holds contractor license number or registered employer number in Minnesota.)

what the department has on record as the designated responsible individual and license number.

of Labor Industry.
