Employee Background Screening

When it comes to employee background screening,
a single instance of neglecting to conduct pre-employment background screening and
subsequently hiring the wrong person can cost
up to 200% of a year’s salary. Employee background screening has evolved from a
sensible practice to an absolute must for businesses. Consider the following:
- 40% of all resumes are missing information or contain false statements, according to Forbes
- 1/3 of employees in the U.S. have stolen on the job, according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
- 30% of all business failures result from poor hiring decisions, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce
These figures are sobering. And although employee background checks may add to your budget, the losses you could incur by failing to conduct employee background checks may be devastating. By performing comprehensive, pre-employment background checks, you will:
- Eliminate costly hiring mistakes
- Recruit and retain quality employees
- Protect your employees and your company’s hard-earned assets and reputation
