Criminal Background Checks for Employment

Criminal background checks for employment are a widely accepted measure used by employers to establish the duty of reasonable care imposed upon them by the Negligent Hiring Doctrine; comply with applicable legal requirements to conduct criminal background screening; and avoid the harmful consequences of a “bad hire.” A well designed employment screening program that includes criminal background checks can mitigate employer risk and lead to better hiring decisions.   GET DETAILS

Personal Background Checks & Identity Verifications

Personal background searches specifically relate to screening of an individual’s behavior and activities outside what you might find in a criminal check or drug screening. In an age of ever-increasing personal privacy rights and concerns, personal searches (like other types of background screening) require strict adherence to rules and regulations around the collection, interpretation, and use of screening information. As a Consumer Reporting Agency and experienced background screening company, Proforma helps hiring companies navigate this environment to build screening programs that are both useful and compliant.
