Employers often utilize background checks for employment screenings for applicants seeking employment or current employees receiving a promotion or transfer to a position of trust or security clearance related jobs. Companies that utilize background checks for pre-employment and existing employees must use the information for permissible purposes only and must comply with all aspects of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
Many employers utilize background checks in conjunction with drug testing to ensure that applicants and current employees are reliable and above reproach and not using illegal drugs.
Clients may bundle background checks and drug tests. (Multiple Order Discounts Available)
To ensure compliance with the FCRA Accredited Drug Testing Inc requires certain information and documentation prior to a background check being conducted regardless whether it is an employer initiated background check or individual seeking information on themselves.
Listed below is specific information relating to an employer or individual requesting a background check:
Companies/Employers
A company/employer wishing to order a background check on a applicant or current employee must be screened or “credentialed†and complete a new client information form along with a service agreement for employment screening services,(These requirements only take a few minutes). In addition, a client wishing to utilize Accredited Drug Testing for background checks services must also provide a blank copy of the authorization and release form utilized by the client when receiving authorization/consent by an applicant or employee (Example consent form available).
After, Accredited Drug Testing has set up the new client account and received all required documentation (Service agreement, Blank consent form). A client may begin requesting background checks immediately. Employers are required to have and maintain authorization/consent forms signed by each person in which the background check is requested.
All employers should verify any adverse information (HITS) by utilizing additional searches, which may include local court house record searches, County of Residence searches and any other means available to ensure verification and accuracy. Accredited Drug Testing can recommend what additional verification may be needed.
