Background and Reference Checks

Finding good talent is essential to an organization’s success.  Conducting effective background and reference checks can help organizations reduce legal liability, minimize risk associated with the cost of mis-hires, and improve productivity.  However, background and reference checks do not come risk free.  You must make sure you’re using them appropriately and not opening your organization up to a host of legal pitfalls.

See below for a list of documents and tools available with the Background and Reference Checks Success Kit.  Upon request, a needs assessment and best practice consultation is also available from a TMS subject matter expert.
