Employee Background
Checks Help Avoid Negligent Hiring.**
What is
Negligent Hiring?
It’s a
liability you face every time you hire – unless you
conduct a thorough pre employment background check. If an employee of
yours commits a crime, is involved in an accident, or
causes damages to a third party, you can be sued. If you
failed to examine the public records of the employee which
would have revealed a criminal record or a history of
driving while intoxicated, a jury may order you to pay
millions! It happens all the time! A jury in Oklahoma
awarded the relatives of a teen-age rape victim $6,500,000
from a national pizza restaurant chain in a negligent
hiring case. Similar cases of Negligent Hiring occurred
when...
You must know
who you are hiring to prevent incidents like these from
happening to you! Recall the adage, “An ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure.” When you do a
background check on job applicants before you hire, you
screen out those who could become liabilities to your
firm. And if an employee does cause damage or commit a
crime, the fact that you took the precaution of a
background check before hiring makes it extremely unlikely
that you could be held liable for negligent hiring. For
your own protection, you should use the
Employee Background Check™
services provided through Profiles International, Inc. to
thoroughly investigate the backgrounds of your prospective
employees. In addition to protecting against negligent
hiring, background checks reduce your risk of dishonesty,
theft and even personal injury. With the rising incidence
of violence in the workplace, this can be an important
issue.
Through the use of our
StepOne Survey,
Background Check, and
Drug Screening services you can reduce or
eliminate the chances of negligent hiring in your
organization.
