The claim, plainly

Some human resources departments exclusively use fax machines and will only respond to verification requests sent via fax.

a quote alone can be ambiguous, so this restates it with the references and context of the conversation around it resolved. AI-written; the tape below the player is the source.

Assessment

The claim asserts that some human resources departments exclusively use fax machines and only respond to employment verification requests sent via fax. Official HR portals and employee verification guidelines from multiple organizations explicitly specify that verification requests are accepted or conducted solely via fax. For example, David Douglas School District's official employee documentation explicitly states that 'Verification of employment is done by fax only,' and Luzerne County's HR portal mandates that 'All employment verification must be faxed.' Because multiple active employers maintain exclusive fax policies for employment verification, the claim is fully verified.

David Douglas School District's official HR/payroll instructions state: 'Verification of employment is done by fax only.'
Luzerne County Government Human Resources portal specifies: 'All employment verification must be faxed to: 570.825.1802.'
Harris County Juvenile Probation Department official policy states: 'All employment verification requests... must be faxed with a signed release to 832-927-0359. Employment verifications cannot be done over the phone.'
