Once your order has been received, a Consultant will contact you for further information, and a Consent Form will be sent to be completed & signed by the relevant party.

We will then conduct our background screening checks (either directly or via a third party, depending on the circumstances) and will issue a detailed report with our findings.

Why companies do credit checks on prospective employees?

“the National Credit Act (NCA) makes provision for employers to check a candidate’s credit status when they are applying for a job that requires trust and honesty and entails the handling of cash or finances.”

"...assessing a candidate’s financial situation in particular, one might be able to determine aspects of that person’s character, their personal context at the time of screening, and how that character and context will influence their performance at work. An irregular credit report can highlight a person’s overall lack of responsibility, such as missed payments, a bankruptcy, or multiple judgements about you.

...there is the chance that the stress resulting from debt, missed payments and bankruptcy might impede upon a candidate’s ability to work at full speed. It’s something all parties should consider."
