ENSURE TRUSTWORTHY EMPLOYEES

The importance of background checks for government agencies

In (semi) government bodies, compliance is one of the quality requirements. To prevent employees from not having the right qualifications, or from entailing risks, they choose to have their employees (periodically) screened. That happens at all levels, from civil servants to aldermen and from support staff to ministers. We get that privacy is an important matter and know the GDPR privacy legislation like no other. We have fully adapted our processes to this, which resulted in a NEN7510 and ISO 27001 certification. Still, doubting if you should screen your employees? Here are two more reasons for using PESCHECK:

    Ensure safety & security

    This process helps to ensure that those who are hired have not been convicted of a crime and are not otherwise ineligible for government employment. In this way, your organisation ensures that you have reliable and honest personnel.

    Centralize & automate

    Avoid manual and decentralized background checks between different divisions of your (semi) government agency.

    Compliance with regulations and standards

    Background screening is essential for compliance and avoiding penalties. Laws require thorough checks on potential employees, making a robust program crucial.

    Which checks for the government sector do we perform?

    Checking all those identity documents, CVs, diplomas, qualifications, declarations of integrity, VOGs and in some cases also international PEP and sanction lists is a time-consuming task. To speed up this process, we have developed our screening dashboard, which automatically performs these routine checks. From an individual screening to a bulk application.

    With screening, government bodies ensure themselves of reliable and trustworthy personnel

    When it comes to compliance, every level of an organisation must meet certain standards. This is why employees in government-related jobs are screened regularly by their employer–to make sure they're qualified and safe enough for the job at hand; if not then there could be risks taken on behalf of other people which would lead to accidents or abusive situations.

    Financial Front-Runners

    Screen your staff in the financial sector and comply with international regulations.

    It is becoming increasingly difficult for organisations to comply international regulations. In addition to ID verification, clients must also be checked for sanctions and PEP status. This should be easier, we think. That is why we developed a customer due diligence that, just like Commerzbank, Geldmaat and Lendex, lets you know within 20 minutes who you are doing business with.

    You are represented by your candidates. That is why you want to be sure that they are the right person for the job. A good job interview or a personality test already says a lot about a candidate.
