Pre-Employment Background Screening

Do You Know Whom You’re Hiring?

Conducting pre-employment background investigations can help answer this question while mitigating your risk from negligent hiring, financial losses, and more importantly, help insure that your hiring decisions are based on sound information. This is an important question for companies to answer, but often is taken for granted with little or no concern. In today’s uncertain and volatile environment this question looms large.

Swailes & Company provides businesses with pre-employment background screening services that offer peace of mind and eliminate those costly mistakes with your employee hiring decisions. Employee theft is, unfortunately, a serious problem in business today. A study by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners indicates that fraud and abuse cost U.S. organizations $400 billion annually and small businesses are the most vulnerable.

The Swailes Team provides companies, of all sizes, with quality pre-employment background screening services and information needed to make a prudent hiring decision. Studies have shown that 33% of the time applicants misrepresent facts on their applications. These misrepresentations include such things as criminal history, education, employment information, address history, driving histories or other exaggerations.
