How To Protect Your Staffing Firm From Identity Fraud
Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) has a positive outlook on the future of staffing, although there are several challenges for HR leaders. Most concerning of these is the recent growth of fraud cases, specifically identity theft.
Fraud is becoming a major pain point for staffing firms
Out of the 188 staffing companies surveyed in the report, 40% responded that one of their end clients found out that an employee had lied about their identity during the past year. Additionally, almost a third (30%) of employers surveyed cited flagrant cases of false identity where an unknown person started work but was not the same person who had completed the pre-employment assessment. This data only further underscores the risks businesses face, especially as remote positions become the norm across industries.
Is there a clear way to help protect your company from identity fraud? After all, few HR professionals expect to come face-to-face with a stranger they’ve just hired after running a thorough staffing background check. The report suggests that the answer may lie in debunking some of the misconceptions the staffing industry has about background checks.
What exactly does a background check include and what doesn’t it include? Surprisingly, the SIA report found that nearly two-thirds of respondents said that they incorrectly assumed that their background check provider was also conducting identity verification as part of their standard service. Often this just isn’t the case; increasingly, HR leaders should be careful to ask if their provider offers this service and whether it needs to be added to core background screening services. Before committing to a background check vendor, ask exactly which services are available. This information will help you to choose the right partner to help you meet HR compliance and nurture a workplace based on trust and safety.
