Employment Screening
Employment screening is a practice no company can afford to ignore. The prevalence of violence, theft, falsified injury claims and other
criminal activity in the workplace should motivate companies to conduct employment screening. Here are some additional reasons employment screening is a must:
- 40% of all resumes contain omissions or falsehoods, according to Forbes
- The U.S. Department of Labor estimates 30% of all business failures stem from bad hiring decisions
- The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners finds one-third of employees in the U.S, have stolen on the job
By conducting employment screening, companies can avoid costly hiring mistakes, maintain a productive talent pool, and protect the firm’s reputation.
