Morris , Field Representative 338- 3931 Some workers in Perquimans County and- other areas of the Albemarle region stand to lose valuable social security pro tection for themselves and their families because they fall to give their social security numbers to their employers, .

If the social security ac count number of a worker is omitted from this report, he gets no credit for his earnings, That can mean a reduction in the amount of social security pay ments when the time comes for the worker and. his dependents to1 claim them. It could mean no payments at all.
