Purpose of Data Collection

Our primary focus is to provide fast and accurate pre/post employment background screening services. We focus on empowering HR Professional with the right tools to make the perfect hiring decision. Employers check both job applicants and existing employees for several reasons. The things an employer wants to know about you can vary with the kinds of jobs you might seek. These are a few of the reasons employers conduct background screening: -Negligent hiring lawsuits are on the rise. If an employee's actions hurt someone, the employer may be liable. The threat of liability gives employers reason to be cautious in checking an applicant's past. -Terrorist acts have resulted in heightened security and identity-verification strategies by employers. -Corporate executives, officers, and directors face a degree of scrutiny in both professional and private life as a result of corporate scandals. -Fraudulent credentials (false or inflated information) supplied by some job applicants make employers wary of accepting anyone's word at face value. -Federal and state laws require that background checks be conducted for certain jobs. For example, most states require criminal background checks for anyone who works with children, the elderly, or disabled. Many state and federal government jobs require a background check, and depending on the kind of job, may require an extensive investigation for a security clearance. Background reports can range from a verification of an applicant's Social Security number to a detailed account of the potential employee's history and acquaintances. Information included in a background check will depend to some extent on the employer and the job involved. For many jobs, a state or federal law requires the employer to conduct a background check. Jobs that involve work with children, the elderly or people with disabilities are examples of jobs that will almost certainly require a criminal background check. Some employers search social networking sites such as Facebook for the profiles of applicants. Here are some of the pieces of information that might be included in a background check. Note that many of these sources are public records created by government agencies. Driving records, Vehicle registration, Credit records, Criminal records, Social Security number, Education records, Court records, Workers' compensation, Bankruptcy, Character references, Medical records, Property ownership, Military records, State licensing records, Drug test records, Past employers, Personal references, Incarceration records and Sex offender lists FCRA Compliant: We are compliant and up-to-date on laws and legislation regarding the background screening industry.
