Background screening

A background screening stops you from worrying

A background screening is conducted to confirm your expectations of people. Many employers or landlords check the accessible information and apparent facts about persons before deciding to hire, rent out, do business or befriend someone. Their intuition plays a significant part.

But what if you need to hire a caregiver for your elderly parent or a nanny for your baby? Based on what facts can you decide to hire a new manager or offer this person an executive role? Sometimes your gut feeling is not enough, or it tells you to investigate further. We can help you with that.

Advanced background screening variations

Background screening has become more complicated over the last decades, as the national boundaries do not limit the search for qualified staff and trusted business relations. These checks may include accessing international databases, retrieving disclosed information, conducting interviews, investigating someone’s actual lifestyle versus the online projected version, and checking the dark web.

Not all of these background screening services are required for every individual. The exact steps and actions depend on the situation. If you need a background check for a company or organization, please take a look at the page ‘Due diligence’.

Background screening examples

One of the most commonly used variations of a background check is the pre employment background check. Infinite Risks International can help you with the screening of:

  • Employees
  • Applicants
  • Volunteers
  • Clients
  • Suppliers
  • Dating partners
  • Caregivers (nurse, doctor, neighbors, etc.)
  • Nannies or babysitters
  • Tenants or landlords
  • Other relations (new friends and acquaintances, lost relatives, etc.)

In some countries, a so-called Data Protection Act protects the privacy and human rights of the people involved. That means, for example, that employers require to provide access to personal information about employees, employers need approval for a staff-member background check, or data needs to be securely saved in company data systems.

A background check does not always require secrecy. In many cases, the person involved is aware a background screening is a standard procedure to move forward in a partnership or relationship. For us, it always implies that discreetness and careful storage of data is key. This service will stop you from worrying and enable you to make the right decisions.
