Background101 Introduces U.S. and Global Background Checks for Businesses of All Sizes, Including Ma

October 24, 2013 posted by Steve Brownstein

Background101, one of the nation’s leading pre-employment and existing employee screening services features the latest technology, FCRA compliant professionals and secure data.

Negligent hiring damages are skyrocketing and cost companies millions in litigation and law suit settlements each year. Businesses and organizations of all sizes are urged to take advantage this affordable and effective background check solution.

Background101 continues to provide the latest background data, accurate reports and employee re-screening services to all qualified businesses, including Fortune 500 companies.

Conducting background screening on employees has become a matter of necessity for employers for several reasons. Many applicants make false claims on their job applications/resumes or have been involved in criminal activity which they may not disclose. If you want to ensure a secure workplace and avoid negligent hiring lawsuits, the amount you would pay to pre-screen your applicants is very small compared to the legal fees you could have to pay later.

Failure to screen current and prospective employees can cost organizations of all sizes a significant outlay of cash and resources.

Performing regular re-screening of employees is essential to the protection of every business. An individual’s personal situation can change at any time. By putting a screening program in place, risk will be minimized while monitoring changes at all levels.

“Our professional background screening product consists of a wide variety of complex components,” said Amanda Cunha, Background101 Vice President. “We work closely will all of our customers to provide the best and most accurate information available,” said Cunha. “Our primary goals are protecting their workforce while assisting them to make intelligent hiring decisions.”
