Employment Background Checks Affect Employee TurnoverEmployee turnover can be reduced in several ways. One the main goals any employer needs to have when hiring a new employee is to know as much information about the employee as possible. One of the best ways to get as much information as you can is to have a complete employment background check as part of your hiring procedure. Along with a good interview process, performing employment and degree verifications with a full criminal history check can be the most important steps when hiring a new employee. These screenings, as part of your employment background check, will help you to determine exactly what a candidate is not telling you, and will verify the things they are.
Background Check InformationWhat's included in an employee background check? The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) sets the standards for employment background checks. The FCRA defines an employment background check as a consumer report. Before an employer can get a consumer report for employment purposes, they must notify you in writing and get your written authorization. If the employer is simply conducting inquiries (rather than running reports) they should also ask for your consent. All of the information gathered by PeopleCheck is kept strictly inline with the guidelines of the FCRA.
