Thousands of pounds are lost at a time by companies who fail to undertake pre employment screening checks and employee background checks. Hiring an individual alone costs an average of £5,000-£10,000, so if a percentage of those employees are unsuitable, your business could face substantial and unnecessary financial losses.
Furthermore, avoiding employee background checks means you could face fines of up to £10,000 as a penalty for hiring illegal workers. Our Moorepay PeopleChecking service is an online facility that allows you to carry out a thorough background check on potential and existing employees, giving you access to their experience, qualifications and eligibility for work in the UK.
Employee background checks give you access to your employees educational background, working history and records. Background checking enables you to know exactly who is working for you, and whether they have the necessary qualifications and requirements for your needs.
Pre employment screening ensures that you have all of the necessary information about your candidate before making the decision to hire them. Pre employment screening is likely to be the most efficient and effective means of ensuring that anyone you might employ is legitimate.
Employment screening gives you the facility to run a background check on your current employees, so that you can be sure that they are exactly who they say they are.
