Background checks during the pre-screening stage have become a standard procedure during the hiring process. Even so, it is important for employers to consider what happens after the initial pre-screen. An employee’s criminal background status may not always remain the same and if a change occurs the employer oftentimes does know. This potentially exposes them to unknown workplace safety matters and risks. Employers have a responsibility to create a safe and productive work environment and continuous criminal monitoring could help mitigate the potential risks that employers may face. Implementing a continuous monitoring approach allows employers to intervene and handle situations in real-time, eliminating countless risks for the business and its employees.
