Employee Screening
Today’s workforce is ever-changing, with people switching jobs and even careers more frequently than before. That has forced business owners to ask some key questions, with increasing urgency.
Small businesses and large corporations alike value good employees, but it can be difficult to predict the impact of employees who cannot be trusted — and small business owners are often unable to absorb the risk and liability of a bad hiring decision. A simple background check helps you make intelligent, informed decisions and gives you assurance that your employees can really be trusted.

02Why Hire a Firm?
You deserve assurance that the information is complete and accurate — an incomplete search can be devastating to both you and an applicant. We tailor each check to your business. Our investigators are fully licensed and follow applicable laws, investigations are thorough and include written reports, and we are directly linked with public information data banks and Department of Motor Vehicles records for detailed, reliable, timely information.
03Background Investigations
A comprehensive look into the past of a prospective employee, which can include various checks and extensive personal interviews of past employers, references and neighbors. Typically used for executives and board members.
04Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)
The federal FCRA sets the national standard for employers who want to learn more about a potential or current employee. It covers much more than credit reports and is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission. 716 Security can help you remain FCRA compliant.
