While the process of performing a background screen on potential employees before making the hire is an important piece of the hiring process, continuous background checks can help alert an organization if someone is engaged in an activity that might bring risk to the business. Running a background check every two years can allow a business to obtain updated information and complete data that can be used to determine ongoing compliance. Factors like the size of the contractor and vendor network, as well as industry best practices, can help the business determine a rescreen timeframe that makes the most sense for the unique needs of the organization.
