Facts Every Employer Should
Know:
– False Employement Applications are submitted
by 1 out of every 3 job applicants.
– Employee Theft causes 3 out of every 10 business failures.
– Embezzlement accounts for property loss averaging over $125,000
per incident.
– Workplace Violence costs employers an estimated 4.2 billion

So, How is your Hiring Process?
Compare:
Violence: After only four days on the job,
an employee robbed and killed a customer. On his application
form, he answered No to the question, Have you ever
been convicted of a crime? Later investigation revealed that
he was a fugitive convicted of aggravated violence.
Drunk Driving: After a short time on the
job, a drunken delivery driver smashed the company van into a
group of senior citizens. Since he was the son of a friend of
the company’s president, the driver was hired after only a cursory
interview and without any record checks. Later, a criminal records
search revealed that the driver had recentlly been convicted
on several counts of Driving Under the Influence.
Harassment: A fast food manager’s subordinate
complained that the manager was harassing her. The employer took
no action until a second employee complained about the harassment.
Upon finally checking into the mananger’s employment history,
the employer discovered that a previous employer (not listed
on the manager’s job application) had fired the manager for on-the-job
harassment.
These cases demonstrate the tortious conduct of
Negligent Hiring, which makes an employer liable for hiring
an unfit applicant.
Similar liability-generating scenarios involve:
Negligent Retention – which makes an employer
liable for retaining an unfit employee.
Negligent Referral – which gives a misleading employment
history, often due to an employer’s inadequate method of employment
screening.
Respondent Superior – which makes an employer vicariously
liable for harms inflicted by a negligent employee.
These and many other problems cost unsuspecting
employers huge amounts of time, money, and goodwill. By utilizing
our services, you virtually eliminate these costs because you
reliably screen out those applicants and employees who are likely
to cause them.
