Security Vetting & Pre Employment Screening
Pro-active risk assessment and sound risk management will enable you to protect your market position. Due diligence is a necessary and essential part of your risk management strategy.
Background investigations are essential in verifying the bona fides of persons placed in positions of trust, as a strong correlation has been shown between companies that carried out background checks and success in harm minimisation. Organizations often fail to undertake background checks on potential corporate partners, employees and new suppliers of goods and services, which could lead to costly damage control measures.
In the current climate of new found 'corporate responsibility and accountability', in which company directors and senior executives are held directly responsible for work place incidents, it is now more important than ever to have confidence in both new and existing staff.
Employment Screening
Pre-employment screening of potential employees is considered best practice in 'fraud prevention' and 'risk management'. Security vetting of potential employees can assist in protecting the integrity of an organization and can reduce losses due to fraud, theft, industrial sabotage, information leakage, staff turnover, absenteeism, incompetence and employee drug abuse.
Pre-employment screening is an essential tool in maintaining the integrity and security of your business. Employment screening for current employees allows you to be confident in the integrity and protection of your business allowing for the placement of staff in positions of trust with added security and confidence.
