FINGERPRINTING

The best hiring decisions start with the right information, which is why employers utilize comprehensive background screening solutions like fingerprinting to mitigate workplace risk. This critical screening process allows organizations to run deeper criminal checks through state and federal databases, verifying an applicant’s absolute identity to prevent fraud, protect assets, and avoid the liabilities of identity theft. For sensitive industries like healthcare, education, finance, and government, these thorough checks ensure full legal compliance while protecting your employees, customers, and company reputation.

REASONS FOR CANDIDATE FINGERPRINT CHECKS

  • Uncompromising Identity Verification: Biometric screening guarantees the background check belongs
    exclusively to the applicant, removing any risk of falsified names, aliases, or identity theft.
  • Direct Access to Law Enforcement Databases: Fingerprints pull directly from official state and federal
    criminal registries, uncovering reliable case histories that basic name-based queries often overlook.
  • Legal and Regulatory Compliance: Many states and federal agencies legally require fingerprint-based
    checks before individuals can work with sensitive assets, financial accounts, or protected groups.
