Abstract
A device receives image data associated with an environment of an individual and identifies verifiable content by processing the image data. The device processes the verifiable content to determine a likelihood that the individual is an employee or agent of an organization and to determine a set of likelihoods of the environment being a work environment. The device determines, based on the likelihood and the set of likelihoods, a number of verifiable hours worked by the individual during a given time period. The device identifies wages data that specifies a number of hours worked that has been credited to the individual for the given time period, determines that an amount of wages paid to the individual is an incorrect amount of wages, and provides an alert to another device that indicates that the amount of wages paid to the individual is the incorrect amount of wages.
