Review the top ten trends and best practices in 2016 for background checks and safe hiring to keep a business productive and out of court and steps a firm can take immediately to avoid a bad hire.

Overview

Employee problems are caused by problem employees, and this webinar will help HR professionals to get background investigator training to avoid bad hires in the first place by keeping current on trends, best practices and legal developments affecting background checks and due diligence in their hiring programs.

Why Should You Attend

Employers have long recognized that conducting due diligence on new hires is a mission critical task. Firms cannot afford to be sidetracked by employee problems such as workplace violence, theft, false resumes, embezzlement, harassment or trumped-up injury claims. Employers can be sued for negligent hiring if they hire someone they should have known, through the exercise of due diligence, was dangerous, unfit, dishonest or unqualified.
