Competition in Background Check Companies

A Low Price Can Be Very Expensive

Cost conscious employers sometimes make the mistake of using background check companies that claim to offer employment background checks from a national database. There is not a national database for background checks, employment verifications or criminal activities. Databases are often out of date or represent only partial information about a candidate. That is why ERS employment background checks are so comprehensive.

Many Choices

Employers have a wide variety of options for ERS background checks on new job applicants. Think about how your new employee will interact with the public, or will they operate vehicles or equipment on your behalf and how much damage they could to people, property or your company. Here are the types of checks we can perform for our clients.

  • Employment Verification
  • Employment References
  • County Criminal
  • Federal Criminal
  • International Criminal
  • Driving History
  • Education Verification
  • Credit Reports
  • Washington State Patrol Checks
  • Office of Inspector General
  • Sex Offender Check
  • Homeland Security / Patriot Act

Internal Checks Don’t Work

Internal staff does not have the skill or time to do employment background checks for your company. They may be able to do a partial job, but when you consider the exposure to possible risk of liability and negligent hiring suits, your best bet is to use the services of Employers Reference Source NW.

One bad event can cost millions of dollars in damages and penalties. Jobs can be lost and reputations damaged.
