Background Screening
Need to run a background check?
Hiring quality employees is critical to the success of any business. Bad hires diminish the safety, integrity, and profitability of your business.
Consider these hiring facts:
- "More than 2 million people are victims of violence in the workplace each year" -- National Crime Victimization Survey
- "The dollar cost of a single episode of serious workplace violence has been calculated to be $250,000″ – The National Safe Workplace Institute
- "33% of all businesses failures are due to internal theft" – US Department of Commerce
- "The average bad hire that leaves a company within six months costs the company approximately $40,000 in severance pay, training, wasted human resources time, possible search firm fees, loss of productivity and impact on employee morale” – US Department of Labor
Background screenings promote safety, honesty, and profitability by:
- Reducing employee turnover by hiring quality employees
- Decreasing the risk of employee theft
- Reducing the risk of workplace violence – know if applicants have violent backgrounds
- Preventing employees from misrepresenting their education or past employment
- Demonstrating due diligence – reduce your liability in court
- Encouraging applicants to be honest during interviews
