Take No Risks - Use Background Checks On Employees
If your business involves handling cash, or perhaps working with children, you will need to be reassured that your staff are suitable to carry out these tasks.
Background checks can help you asses whether or not a candidate is the right person for the job they are applying for, and PeopleChecking carry out all kinds of employment screening, including a CRB check, which will give you peace of mind.
It has been estimated that a fifth of the working population has a criminal record and employment is the single most important factor in reducing re-offending. Failure to get paid employment is a major reason for re-offending, so we can all see why it is important that criminals are given a second chance, but you, the employer, need to know exactly what they have been convicted of.
Evidence shows that of all things to put an employer off, a criminal offence is the worst. People with a criminal record are unsure about disclosing information when seeking employment. They know from experience that this will jeopardise their chances. They also know that not declaring records about unspent convictions will break the trust of an employer if it is found out at a later date. This is a dilemma that can only be addressed by encouraging disclosure and by fair employment practice.
PeopleChecking will ensure that the people who apply to work for you are fully checked out, and not only when it comes to a criminal records check. They look after all aspects of pre employment screening, including credit checks, qualification checks and professional membership checking.
