Benefits to Employers of Pre-Employment Background Screening

As employers, we are all aware of the negative impact that just one ‘wrong’ employee can have upon your business. Each year companies lose thousands of dollars or more on these employees.

By including into your hiring & interviewing process, Pre-Employment Background Screening, it can keep your company safer and give you the protection you need for your business, your employees and it will save you money.

Here are some valuable benefits:

  • 5% of revenues are lost each year by companies due to employee theft
  • Violence in the workplace has increased extensively over the past years. Over 400 homicides are reported each year in the workplace.
  • Trust – A recent survey from CareerBuilder shows that 58% of prospective employees give false or misleading information on their resumes
  • Decrease Turnover – A new employee is an investment and it takes time to train and give them the tools to produce a return on the employers’ investment. Decrease turnover and having better employee retention is a value of background screening prior to employment

Employers also need to keep up with compliance regulations. You must comply with federal laws that protect applicants and employees from discrimination. In addition, when you run background checks, you must comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). POEknows can help your business with Pre-Employment Background Checks.
