Why Background Checks Are Important for Small Businesses


Employers use background checks to protect their businesses, employees, and customers.

You learn about your candidates' criminal history, employment history, and credit history. They can also reveal information about an applicant's character and reputation.

Background checks also help your business comply with the law, including those outlined by the Equality Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

The EEOC enforces, "An employer cannot conduct background checks or use the information obtained in a manner that denies equal employment opportunity to anyone on a protected basis, by intent or by unlawful disparate impact."
