Why Every Employee Should Undergo a Background Check

Would you hire a criminal or one who has a criminal record? Would you entrust your company’s deepest secrets to a person who will use the information in a negative way? Would you let a person into your office knowing that they could mean you harm in the future? The answer to all those questions is simple – no. But how can you really answer those information if you lack information about a person? Do you think that you could spot criminals by looking at their resume? Can you tell if you can trust a person just by interviewing them? Would you know if a perso...

Why Background Checks are Important for Nonprofit Organizations

You would think that people who volunteer or apply for nonprofit organizations have a golden heart. They are there because they want to serve and make the world a better place to live in. Ideally, that should be the case but realistically, the truth is far from that. It is a good thing that even nonprofit organizations screen their applicants because otherwise, a lot of people who should not be there would have made it in. Nonprofit organizations only have the best of the best people in terms of character because they learn more about an individual before accepting them. They do ...

Background Checking: They Aren't Just Checking References Any More

Author: Jeff Altman

For the longest time, employers would do simple background checks. They have a potential employee complete a job application where they were asked for three professional references. Before the employee was hired, the three would receive a telephone call and tell the potential employer that the job applicant was a wonderful individual who would do incredible things for them, just as they had done before.

For a while, polygraphs or lie detectors became part of the standard arsenal of checking until, fortunately, legislation was passed in many states eliminating it as a tool (they were notoriously inaccurate).

In a recent poll, 77% of employers surveyed were searching the web for information about new hires and 35% had eliminated a candidate based upon something they found there.

A few years ago, a manager I was working with at a hedge fund Googled the name of a job applicant for a technical position and found a posting where they had written that they were still working in technology only because they had suffered large trading losses and wanted to join a company where they could learn what they did wrong—in other words, learn how my client traded and steal the model. Suffice it to say, the candidate was rejected.

Companies are examining listings on www.myspace.com and www.facebook.com to determine whether the job applicant might have done something inappropriate.

And, as they have for years, many are doing background checks including checks of your financial responsibility (credit checks).

So, remember that picture in the belly shirt with the beer in your hand toasting the photographer you posted on MySpace three years ago? And guy, remember that picture that was taken of you streaking through the frat house when you were 19 that’s still on your webpage?

Take this stuff down before it takes you down.

10 Frequently Asked Questions about Background Checks

1. Why Do a Background Check?

Doing a background check is an opportunity for you to verify information. Whether you receive the information from a job candidate, a prospective tenant, someone applying for credit or anyone you feel you need to know more about. A background check can also reveal information that was either mistakenly or intentionally omitted.

Using background checks can help you verify degrees or certifications that were earned and provide specific information about employment history.

If you are an employer or landlord, background checks will help you to reduce your risk of lawsuits and help you to protect your assets.

2. What Types of Background Checks Are Available?

Here is a quick bullet list of some of the types of background checks available:

• Address history
• Social security number trace
• Federal criminal records
• Statewide criminal records
• County criminal records
• Instant criminal history
• Sexual offender registry
• Federal civil records
• County civil records
• Department of motor vehicles driver’s history
• License and certificate confirmations
• Education confirmation
• Prior employment confirmation
• Workers compensation records
• Drug testing
• Reference checks
• and many more...

3. How Much Do Background Checks Cost?

Background check costs can vary depending on the number of searches included in the screening requests. Simple checks can cost as little as $20.

By combining several searches into a single background check package, many companies can offer a better price per screening. Some background check companies can offer volume discounts to companies or individuals that order their services frequently.

Also, there is software that can be purchased to do your own background checks on the Internet.

4. How Long Does It Take to Complete a Background Check?

Most employee background checks can be completed in 48 to 72 hours. Most companies can complete address searches and credit reports, instantly.

Statewide and County criminal searches can be completed within 48 hours. Education and employment confirmations are usually done in 48 to 72 hours.

5. How Do I Receive the Background Check Information?

With most companies that do background checks, you can select the option that suits you best. The company can e-mail results directly to you. Results can also be faxed, viewed online or sent by regular mail.

6. What If There Is a Mistake on the Credit History Portion of a Background Check?

The applicant has specific rights outlined in the summary of rights, which must be provided to the subject of the background check. This is specified in the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The applicant or the employer or whoever is making the request for the background check, should make an inquiry, and it will be investigated.

7. Should a Nationwide Criminal Background Check Be Requested?

An accurate nationwide criminal history check would be possible, but extremely expensive. It is misleading to advertise a “Nationwide Criminal Search” because it does not include all states and is done by searching databases, not the court system. Many of the courts do not participate in submitting their records to these databases. The records of these databases are frequently outdated. 3000 courts throughout the country would have to be searched, since there is no central repository available for criminal records to the private sector.

8. Can I Do a Background Check on a Minor?

Juvenile records are not available, but if the subject of the background check was tried as an adult, you may be able to find the records available in the courts.

9. Do I Need a “Release” Form from the Subject of the Background Check?

A signed release form should be obtained from any subject of a background check. Be sure to keep a copy of a signed release form for your own files. Also, be sure the subject of the background check receives a “Summary of Rights” (as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act) with their copy of the signed release form.

10. When Is a Driver's History Background Check Required?

If anyone is driving on behalf of your company or organization - even once - they're driving history should be checked on a regular basis.
