Background Check Prevention
Things a background check may prevent:
§ A dishonest employee committing theft in your business
§ Hiring an applicant with a history of drug or alcohol abuse
§ Hiring an applicant with the potential toward violence or abuse
§ Hiring an applicant who can’t handle their own financial affairs
§ Hiring an applicant who has served prison time
§ Hiring an applicant who can’t get along with co-workers or supervisors
§ Hiring an applicant who lacks the education to perform the job
§ Hiring an applicant who lacks the experience to do the job
§ Hiring an applicant who fabricated employers
§ Hiring an applicant with a suspended or revoked driver’s license.
A background check may also prevent:
§ Wasting time with an unqualified applicant
§ Hiring an applicant who jumps from job to job
§ Hiring a poor performer
§ Hiring an applicant with long periods of unexplained non-employment
§ A lawsuit filed for negligent hiring or retention
§ Hiring a registered sex offender
§ Accepting bogus identification from an applicant
§ Checking criminal history based on where the applicant says he lived rather than where he actually lived
§ Finding out post-hire that an employee has civil judgments, liens, or garnishments
And most importantly, a background check may prevent an employer from regretting that he ever hired an applicant in the first place.
