I recently started work at a fairly large human resource outsourcing firm, and while many of our clients have their employees marked by an SSN, they're all identified by an internal ID. There's also a push to start taking SSNs out of client records completely. The unfortunate problem is that because everyone started using an SSN ID system, it's very difficult to take them out of the equation.
