Adverse Action Compliance
During the screening process, disqualifying or troubling information may arise, such as recent convictions or fabricated educational credentials, which may warrant denying employment or withdrawing an offer to protect your organization and hire a more qualified candidate.
State + Local Requirements
HR and background screening strategies must be adapted to meet all of the unique compliance concerns that apply to the organization based on its size, industry, and the jurisdictions where it operates.
Information that Justifies Disqualification

These reasons must not be discriminatory, exercise bias against a protected class, or in any way violate the guidelines of the EEOC.
