How to report a profile incorrectly linked to your company on LinkedIn

If your company appears as a current employer on a profile you believe is inaccurate, you can report that association from your LinkedIn Page. The direct flow requires you to be a super admin and the Page to be verified. Check verification first, then report the employment information from the member’s profile.

Check your role and Page status

You need to be a super admin of your Company Page. LinkedIn also requires the Page to be verified for the direct report. To use that tool, request or complete verification. For an unverified Page, check the form alternative explained below. Review LinkedIn’s requirements and alternatives.

If you do not have the super admin role, ask someone who does to review and handle the case. You can request admin access to a LinkedIn Page if you need to manage the Page, but that process does not replace a report about an inaccurate employment relationship.

Report the association from the profile

Once the Page is verified and you have the required role:

1. Open the profile of the member whose current employment information you believe is inaccurate.
2. Select More, then Never an employee of my org.
3. When prompted, choose your organization.
4. Select Submit and keep the profile link and report date for your records.

LinkedIn says the report is anonymous to the member. After it is sent, the member has 7 days to verify their work email. If they do not verify it within that period, LinkedIn disassociates their work experience from the Page. If the option is missing, check again that you are acting as a super admin and the Page is verified. If both are correct and the control is still missing, consult LinkedIn’s help for this feature. Review LinkedIn’s current process.

If the Page is not verified

Check the official form for reporting inaccurate information. The feature-specific help recommends it for Pages ineligible for verification; the general help also describes it for unverified Pages. Check whether LinkedIn makes that form available for your Page. Have the profile or information link, the employment experience you believe is inaccurate, an explanation of how you know, and your digital signature ready. Only a super admin should submit it; LinkedIn says it will not process submissions from content admins, paid media admins, or analysts. Read the form requirements.

For that route, LinkedIn says it will notify the member and remove the information within 14 days, unless the member challenges the report. That timeframe belongs to the form and is separate from the direct report’s 7-day period. Neither process guarantees that a whole profile will be removed: the procedure reviews an employment or education association with the Page. If the member challenges the report or LinkedIn does not change the information, keep the result and follow the help route LinkedIn provides.

If you need to change who manages the Page, see how to add or remove LinkedIn Page admins. This report concerns current employment information associated with the Page, not admin access or whether the member’s account exists.
