Employees

Checking an employee’s job references is only a small part of a background check program. Companies should consider a range of relevant factors which may increase its risks, including: an employee’s financial responsibilities or the security exposure of the position.

Best screening practices require a review of several aspects of an employee candidate, such as academic records and employment experience, criminal litigation history, social media footprint, and credit history. Depending upon the safety-sensitivity of the position, drug testing might also be relevant.
