In 2020, <a href=\"https://pubs.thepbsa.org/pub.cfm?id=459B8AB7-0CEA-625E-0911-A4A089DE5118\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">12 percent of surveyed employers</a> said they were conducting background checks annually or more frequently compared to 6 percent in 2018. </p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as HR experts continue to recognize and discuss the value of regular re-screening, these numbers are likely to grow. In a <a aria-label=\"SHRM article (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/talent-acquisition/pages/shrm-trend-continuous-background-screening.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SHRM article</a>, Nick Fishman, president of Fishman Group Consultants, says: “Continuous monitoring is a critical evolution in the background screening industry. It will keep companies safer from fraud, theft and reputational damage.”</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"Block HeaderBlock \">\n\n  \n  <div>\n\n    \n    \n    \n        \n\n  </div>\n\n  \n</div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"continuous-screening-benefits-the-company-employees-customers\">Continuous Screening Benefits the Company, Employees &amp; Customers</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employers may risk damage to their reputations and potential legal liability because of things their employees may be doing outside of the workplace. Certain industries—childcare services, healthcare organizations and financial services, for instance—may be especially susceptible to risk based on employees’ criminal behavior.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Employers also are responsible for the safety of their employees and customers. It’s important for organizations to be continually alert to signs that employees may represent potential risk and to take steps to minimize or remove that risk.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>“Employers may be at risk for negligent retention claims if they fail to take action, or terminate, an employee when they should have known that an employee represented an unreasonable risk,” said Elizabeth McLean, General Counsel at GoodHire.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuous post-employment screening helps you to:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Maintain safety in your workplace</li><li>Mitigate potential risk</li><li>Protect your company from liability claims</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let’s take a look at how to get started and what you need to know to do these checks in a consistent and compliant way.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"x-steps-to-get-started-with-a-post-hire-background-check-program\">5 Steps to Get Started with a Post-Hire Background Check Program</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When initiating a post-employment background check program, it’s important to incorporate the process into your company’s employment screening policy. Keep in mind that all employees must be screened equally—not just some employees. However, it’s acceptable—and recommended—to customize your screening packages based on different employee positions and responsibilities. It’s important to not discriminate between employees and to ensure consistency in the process and any decisions made based on the findings.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Update your background check policy</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An important first step is to update your background check policy to include post-hire screening, and ensure it is accurate, up-to-date and compliant. Any new policy updates should be reviewed by your legal counsel.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>The policy should include:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>What, specifically, you will review (e.g. criminal records).</li><li>How often, and when, you will conduct this screening. Depending on your industry, this could be annually or as frequently as monthly. In terms of timing, the background check might be based on an employee’s anniversary date or some other date (e.g. the beginning of each year).</li><li>A statement that the policy applies to <em>all</em> employees.</li><li>A request for employees to be open about anything that may turn up in their background check and to be proactive about reporting these incidents.</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Inform current employees and new hires</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You will want to notify and clearly explain the policy to existing employees, explaining the importance of regular screening for the company and for them.</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Make sure that all employees know who to contact, and how, and ask that they be proactive in alerting you to any incidents that may occur.</li><li>When you hire new employees<em>, </em>clearly state that your policy is to conduct routine background checks on all employees, and how often they occur. Your goal is to ensure employees are not surprised when it’s time to run a check.</li><li>Don’t just make communication a one-and-done event. It should be ongoing.&nbsp;</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping employees informed and educated about your process and its benefits to the company, them and your customers can help to alleviate any anxiety or concerns they may have.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Keep Compliance Top of Mind</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as with pre-employment background screening, there are rules and regulations that apply to conducting ongoing post-employment screening. Most importantly, per the federal <a aria-label=\"Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/pdf-0096-fair-credit-reporting-act.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)</a>, you are required to obtain your employees’ consent before conducting a background check. For ongoing checking a best practice is to include an evergreen clause in your initial consent form if allowed in your state.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also be clear about what type of actions may be taken based on the result of a screening, and the rights employees have to dispute the report or provide additional information. (GoodHire’s system allows employees to easily append this type of information to the record.)</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Follow your policy</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Implement routine background checks in accordance with your organization’s employment screening policy and, if an alert prompts a decision about whether to terminate or not promote, follow the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission&#8217;s (EEOC) guidelines and your employment screening policy to ensure consistency and fairness.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>It’s one thing to say that you will run a background check every six months, it’s another to actually follow through. Any variance between policy and action will diminish the impact and value of your screening policy.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Consider ongoing alerts</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>GoodHire’s <a href=\"/blog/should-you-regularly-screen-employees/\">Ongoing Alerts</a> provide an add-on to two types of background check searches: the National Criminal Database Search and the Healthcare Sanctions Check (OIG Exclusion List &amp; SAM.gov). On a monthly basis GoodHire will automatically run these checks on your employees and send you an alert if anything is found.</p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"Block u-align--center u-marginTop--none

your next step will be making informed decisions about how to respond.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"make-informed-decisions\">Make Informed Decisions</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to background checks, “no news is good news.” Unfortunately, chances are that from time to time you will be alerted to something that has shown up in one of your employee’s background checks. What then?</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Consider</h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Your company’s employment screening policy.</li><li>Guidelines put forth by the EEOC to conduct individualized assessments.</li><li>The adverse action steps you must follow to comply with the FCRA.</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding the adverse action process and what’s required</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Any decision that has the potential to negatively affect an employee’s employment or job status is considered an <a href=\"/blog/what-does-adverse-action-mean/\">adverse action</a>. Any adverse action you consider needs to offer the employee an opportunity to explain or provide additional context about the situation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to terminate, or not promote, an employee based on information in a background check, you need to follow an adverse action process that is compliant with the FCRA. This includes:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Send a pre-adverse action notice.</li><li>Provide a waiting period that is “reasonable” and that provides the candidate with an opportunity to dispute the information (typically five business days).</li><li>Send a post-adverse action notice of your intent to terminate or not offer a promotion.</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use GoodHire, each background check includes <a href=\"/background-checks/compliance-features/\">integrated adverse action</a>. Through automatic notifications, the system alerts you when adverse action steps can be taken legally, and user-friendly instructions and built-in waiting periods guide you through the process.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond these federal requirements, depending on your jurisdiction, you may need to document how the particular offense or incident impacts the employee’s ability to do their job by means of an individualized assessment.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ready-to-implement-a-post-employment-background-check-process\">Ready to Implement a Post-Employment Background Check Process?</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Implementing an ongoing background check process on existing employees can offer big benefits for you and, when introduced and communicated effectively, also benefits employees and the company as a whole.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind, employees will find your process less threatening if they:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Know about the process and why it is being implemented</li><li>Expect it to happen on a regular basis</li><li>Know that everyone is being screened to benefit all</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-organized, ongoing post-hire screening process can bring a feeling of confidence and safety from knowing that you’re looking out for your employees—and the customers they serve.<br></p>\n\n\n<div class=\"Block u-align--left is-imageLeft60
