Verifications

Employment Reference Verification

Verifying the references of a prospective employee can be a tedious and often lackluster chore. Yet considering the often devastating effects of a “negligent hire,” a pre employment reference check is one chore many organizations won’t soon neglect. An employment reference verification can yield valuable information to help you bring the right people into your organization.

Description of Service:

Employment reference verification is an expanded version of our basic employment verification service. With an employment reference verification we contact your applicant’s employment reference sources and verify information such as the nature of the position held, attendance record, reason for leaving, or other related information.

Best Practices of a Pre Employment Reference Check:

When employment reference verification involves asking questions that go beyond factual items of dates, position, salary, etc., the background report is considered an Investigative Consumer Report, governed by FCRA § 606. With this designation come additional responsibilities that you must meet. Your provider should help you understand these requirements and assist in your compliance with FCRA regulations. Proforma has deep experience with and understanding of FCRA regulations. We can create a reference verification program for your organization that is both useful and compliant.

Limitations of ab Employment Reference Verification:

The main limitation of employment verification is the amount of information an employer is willing to provide. Certain employers have policies that prevent the release of information such as salary or eligibility for rehire. Others have policies that only allow confirmation of information provided by the applicant -- these companies will only say if the information provided agrees with their records or not.
