Employment Screening Requirements

We work for you. A collaborative partnership with Backgrounds Online is the best resource in pre-employment screening.

Employee screening can involve large amounts of sensitive data which is governed by both Federal and state laws. Backgrounds Online performs business verification as part of client signup in order to remain firmly compliant with the FCRA (Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act) and various laws nationwide. To become a client of Backgrounds Online and receive access to our sensitive screening data, an organization must meet the following, simple requirements:

• Be an organization which is licensed or registered as required by law, in good standing and have a legitimate business purpose.
• Agree to uphold applicant and employee rights under the guidelines set forth by the FCRA (our Customer Support Specialists will gladly provide assistance and expertise).
• Obtain written consent, as required by law, prior to background screening. We provide customized release forms, free of charge.
• Agree, sign, and abide by our service agreement.
• Maintain confidentiality of all background reports.
• In certain situations, a brief on-site visit may be requested.
