Background Check

The Employer's Liability

“The cost of one lawsuit, one major theft or one violent act in the workplace could exponentially exceed the cost of decades of criminal background checks & pre employment screening.”

With our nation's heightened awareness of security issues, employment screening and criminal background checks have become more important than ever.

Any business that employs people who have regular contact with the public, especially away from the company's offices, should ALWAYS do employment background checks on all job applicants prior to hiring, simply to protect itself against claims for negligent hiring or retention.

Employers nationwide have become responsible for large monetary judgments where no reasonable action was taken to potentially identify "foreseeable conduct" where there was a history of that conduct.

If an employee cause’s harm to another employee or your client, and the employer could have known that the individual was a risk (by taking reasonable steps like running a criminal background check) the courts have found that those companies can be held liable for multi million dollar judgments!


Background checks should also be done on employees who will handle financial data or other sensitive information. When you consider the time and expense associated with recruiting, hiring, and training employees, the idea of verifying background details just makes good sense. Statistics PROVE the need for background checks.

Be Informed.  Know the Facts. 

Face it; we live in a dangerous world filled with dangerous people - people who aren't always who they seem to be. And in many cases, people who might be less than completely honest or forthcoming about their past or about who they represent themselves to be. A lot of people have "skeletons in their closet" so to speak, so it makes sense to take steps to protect yourself so that you know exactly who you're getting involved with, BEFORE it's too late. Especially if that person is going to be an employee or have access to private information, your home, your business, your family or your property.

If you're searching for a "free background check" or "free criminal background check", the reality is that if you don't know how and where to find and access ALL of the public records databases that could contain information about the person you want to search background check information on, you're better off just paying a nominal fee for a criminal background check and employment screening company to do the job for you correctly the first time.

Start Background Check / Pre-Employment Screening Now  

What information is typically included in background checks? Specific details of an individual's past are revealed for purposes of employment. Depending on the company providing the background check, a report may include criminal records, litigation records, driving and vehicle records, education records, licensing records, military records, government records, social security number, property ownership, credit records, credit reports, employment history, worker's compensation claims or payments, medical records, sex offenders list, public records such as judgments and foreclosures, bankruptcy, etc.

Whenever we hear the term 'background checking' it automatically gives us the impression of a background of past criminal activities. But the truth of the matter is, a background check does not always involve an in depth check; it may be done for the simple purpose of clearing any doubts before entering into a business venture or hiring a new employee.

If you are going to perform such a background check on some person or some business entity, you must be aware of several federal laws that control the access to public records and personal information. So far as the financial records are concerned, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB) governs the procedures through which personal financial information are disclosed to a third party. Then there is the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) that protects the privacy of a person's consumer reports. Similarly, The Drivers Privacy Protection Act protects the past driving records of individuals.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act bankruptcies more than ten years old; civil suits, judgments, and records of arrest more than seven years old; paid tax liens after seven years; accounts placed for collection after seven years; and any other negative information (other than criminal convictions) after seven years cannot be reported in a background check.

A criminal background check, employment background check or pre-employment screening can help to reveal a much more complete and definitive picture of a potential employee, tenant, nanny or significant other. And because it's done online, you get the results immediately instead of having to wait weeks for a private investigator, criminal background check or pre-employment screening service to get back to you.

Taking a closer look at the people you hire or associate with is a good idea, but obviously running an extensive criminal background check on everyone is cost prohibitive, to say nothing of time consuming.

A criminal background check online or online pre-employment screening is the perfect solution.

Run Background Check Now  

That's because they are a good deal cheaper than more extensive background checks and pre-employment screenings and tend to provide much of the same information. You can also run a background check on yourself so that you can see what employers may be obtaining and considering prior to hiring YOU.

A common misconception of employers or landlords is that any background check will take weeks or months and will eat up funds without end. This simply isn't true. Instant background checks can be ordered online and can quickly and accurately yield important information on someone. It could reveal employment history, credit history, criminal records, public records like judgments, foreclosures, bankruptcies, arrest records and the like.

This kind of background check is perfect for the busy employer with a number of potential employees to consider. Screening is an unfortunate necessity today because companies are usually responsible for the actions of their employees.
