Business Employee Screening & Background Checks

CV fraud is a serious and growing problem. Details provided by a potential employee on their application form are a mixture of facts and representations. The facts, such as sex and height are difficult to alter. Almost everything else can be overstated, falsified or omitted. Personal history can be falsified, qualifications fabricated, identities assumed and references faked. Research has shown that up to eighty percent of applicants provided false or misleading information or omitted important facts about themselves. Whilst some falsehoods put on applications may be treated as innocuous, the consequences of employing someone who has not been honest can be disastrous.

Our service levels can provide different levels of protection depending on a number of factors, including your own internal policies, the sensitivity of the position etc. We offer a bespoke service depending on your needs; for general business needs we have two suggested standardised levels of screening, and a higher-level Senior Executive Vetting. This can also be used for more sensitive positions, such as payroll or personnel positions.
