Filtration & Separations Recruiter - Can I Afford BackGround Screening?

My name is Lisa Sprowls and I am a Filtration Recruiter. I work on many sales/ engineering/executive/ and management level positions serving the search and recruitment needs of both large and small manufacturers and distributors in the Filtration/Water & Wastewater/ Separations/and Environmental Industries.

With each and every finalist candidate that we present to our clients, we also provide a complete background check. Our background checks are provided by our parent company, BackTrack Inc., www.backtracker.com. All reports provided include employment verification, education verification, social security trace report, motor vehicle report, reference checking and criminal records searches.

Can I Afford BackGround Screening?
There are some sobering statistics for employers who feel they can’t afford to hire an outside agency to do backgroud screening, or who don’t do background screening on their candidates.

An estimated 1 in 5 companies don’t do background checks.

Negligent hiring suits are on the rise – these are suits filed after employees have committed harmful acts that allege employers didn’t diligently research their workers’ backgrounds before hiring them.

On average, employers are losing these suits 72% of the time

There are numerous examples of companies who didn’t do a background check on their employees prior to hiring them, only to pay a much higher cost later on. There is the large corporation that hired a delivery person. The delivery person never had a background check done. He went in to a home and used a knife to attack a customer in her home. The company was sued for $2.5 million for negligently hiring and retaining the delivery man.

The average settlement is approximately $1.6 million, according to Public Personnel Management. So, can you afford to do background screening? Or should the question be can you afford NOT to screen?
