Top Things to Consider When Choosing a Backgrounds Check Provider

Top Things to Consider When Choosing a Backgrounds Check Provider

In the 21st century, it has become commonplace for employers to conduct background checks on prospective hires. These background checks help companies get a better idea of who they are hiring and if there are any red flags that may not have been revealed during earlier portions of the hiring process. Of course, if you are going to do a background check, it’s important to do so in a legal manner.

The Rules Still Apply If You Outsource This Task

If you are looking to partner with an outside background check provider, you should choose a company that takes compliance seriously. Most states have rules as to when you can conduct background checks and the information that you can legally obtain while conducting them. Any violation of those rules could result in a lawsuit or potential exposure to other legal consequences.

What Will an Outside Party Do With a Person’s Data?

Data security needs to be taken seriously as your company could be held liable for any damages a prospective hire incurs in the event of a data breach. In some cases, you could be held personally liable for damages incurred as the result of a data breach. It’s also worth noting that state or federal law may require you to keep a prospective hire’s information on file for a certain period of time. Therefore, you will want to work with a company that puts a priority on storing information in a manner that is both secure and easy to access.

Outsourcing background checks to an outside provider may help your company save time, save money and obtain better information about potential hires. However, it’s critical that you partner with a firm that takes compliance and data security seriously. Otherwise, you could spend that extra time and money in court or on legal fees.
