Beyond the resume: Background screening to protect organisational integrity

Understanding importance of background screening for organisations

With increased concerns about security, ever changing and stringent regulatory environment, organisations adopting hybrid or differentiated working patterns, there is an increased need to prevent unscreened personnel from entering organisations and, accessing critical information. An oversight in this area could result in an irreversible damage to corporate reputation and business.

Independent background checks help to identify candidates with suspicious or tainted backgrounds to make right hiring decisions. This can help an organisation to:

  1. Build a culture of trust that encourages fearless reporting and whistleblowing
  2. Help organisations achieve their financial and non-financial goals
  3. Strengthen risk framework and minimise incidence of fraud
  4. Give a clear direction to an organisation and its people to uphold integrity
  5. Protect brand reputation of the organisation
