The Value of Background Screenings
Background screening is a crucial step that provides your business a better understanding of who you are working with and can protect your company from unnecessary expenses or lawsuits.

1. Peace of Mind – Nearly 50% of applicants falsify information on their resumes. This poses a risk to businesses, as it makes it near impossible to trust a candidate’s information at surface-level. Our CRA’s are trained to look for red flags when conducting screenings to ensure that your candidates have provided honest information that allows you to make a well-informed decision.
2. Create a Safer Workplace – The driving force behind employers deciding to implement background screenings is for the safety of your current employees as well as public safety. Your due diligence can help uncover certain violent, aggressive, or otherwise unsafe behaviors your prospective candidate has demonstrated.
3. Reduce Negligence – Not many businesses are aware that there are state/federal requirements to run most criminal background verifications and specialized searches like social media screening. In most cases these searches need to be performed by a third party. Conducting these searches in house can allow for potential discrimination and negligence lawsuits. Studies show that employers lose cases relating to these about 70% of the time, and the average lawsuit is estimated to be around $1 million.
4. Penalties for Lack of Compliance – In some industries, background screenings are required by local, state, or federal statutes. These regulations are constantly changing and come with a large price tag if not handled correctly or are found out of compliance. When partnering with a trusted background screening agency like Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce, we not only educate you on screening regulations related to your business, we also give you the tools to ensure you stay in compliance.
