Pre-Employment Screening - Dos and Don'ts

Know what employers CAN and CAN'T find out about applicants!

Violence, theft and criminal activity have become greater risks in the workplace, which necessitates the task of pre- employment screening and employee background checks. That's why employers are taking interest in performing criminal background checks in addition to asking about criminal records on job applications. In fact, employers who fail to take reasonable precautions about those they hire can be sued if an employee with a criminal background harms someone.  A Background Check Company relieves the employer of this time-consuming task by providing data regarding employment and pre-employment screening services in an easy, prompt and expedient manner.

Do criminal record searches mean that applicants who have criminal background records or had a brush with the law will never find a good job, or that employers are assured that they will never hire a person with a criminal background? The answer to both is no. When private employers check an applicant’s criminal background records, they normally do not have access to governmental criminal databases. Private employers can check criminal records only by going to individual courthouses and looking through the records that are kept by each court. Since there are more than 10,000 courthouses in America, a nationwide courthouse check of the applicant's criminal background record is not practical.

To determine where to search or perform background screening, employers will examine the resume or job application. They can also review records kept by credit bureaus that list addresses associated with Social Security Numbers, and they need to verify past jobs to confirm where a person has been and to make sure there are no unexplained gaps in employment. Without a careful check of previous addresses, criminal background records can be missed.

When an employer hires a Background Check Company to perform the search, it is regulated by the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. Searches can be conducted only if an applicant provides written consent. If a criminal record is found, applicants must be given an opportunity to question its accuracy and must receive a copy of their legal rights before the decision to deny the job is made final. Due to the manner in which public records are maintained, errors are always possible, and cases of mistaken identification have occurred. There are also legal limits on how far back court researchers can go in reporting convictions.

Despite these limitations, employers still find criminal background record searches valuable. A search for criminal background records discourages applicants with something to hide and limits uncertainty in the hiring process. It also shows that an employer exercised due diligence. Even if an applicant is found to have a criminal background record during background screening by an employment services screening agency, there are legal limitations on what information can be used by an employer.

If a criminal conviction or pending case is located, does that necessarily mean that an applicant is eliminated? The answer again is no. Courts have found that a policy of automatically denying employment can result in discrimination against certain groups. Instead, employers must examine whether there is a sound business reason to not hire an individual with a criminal record, taking into account the nature of the offense, whether it is job-related, when it occurred and what the person has done since.

What should applicants do if they are concerned about a criminal matter? First, ask an attorney if the criminal record can be expunged or set aside by going back to court, or whether it is the type of offense that an employer may legally ask about or consider. Second, applicants can seek to rebuild their resumes by finding employment with people they know, or with employers in a tight job market willing to give them an opportunity. Finally, honesty is always the best policy. A criminal matter explained during an interview may have much less of a negative impact than hiding it and having an employer discover it later. The denial of a job could be based upon the lack of truthfulness, regardless of the nature of the offense. Call our friendly staff at 1-888-282-0447 for more information on this subject.

Tenant Report

A Tenant Report Tells You What You Need to Know

As a property owner, you know the importance of renting to people who have a good rental history and you do not want anyone who has a criminal past or does not pay rent. But how can you tell? If you visit AAA Credit Screening Services, we can provide you with a tenant report that allows you to verify their past rental history, criminal records (if any), and even tax liens and civil court judgments.

An Employment Background Screening From AAA Helps You Avoid Hiring The Wrong Person

[Posted on July 26]

As an employer, finding the right person for an open position can be time consuming, especially in this competitive job market. Any posting for a position is going to receive a lot of responses, many of which can be quickly disqualified, but that leaves a number of applications and resumes from seemingly qualified candidates. Narrowing down that pool can be difficult but worth the effort in the long run. Hiring the wrong person can mean more than just a less productive employee; it can mean damaging your company’s reputation, not to mention your own. An employment background screening from AAA Credit Screening Services gives you the information you need to make an informed decision about who you’re choosing to fill your open position.
