Solutions for Private Investigators
Employment Background Screening Services (Powered by Simplified)
Private Investigators! Which one applies to you and your business?
If you don’t offer employment background screening – you could.
Many PIs opt not to do this service for customers because they’re not a CRA (Consumer Reporting Agency), and their expertise as a PI lies in other areas. PIs all have or will very likely be asked to provide this service because many individuals and businesses assume PIs must provide investigative services of all kinds. By partnering with Simplified Screening it enables PIs to tap into a multi-billion dollar industry to provide background screening services of job applicants, current employees, volunteers, independent contractors, tenants, and other FCRA (Fair Credit Reporting Act) regulated permissible background screenings that can all be Powered by Simplified.
If you do offer employment background screening – you could do it better.
Employment background screening is regulated by the FCRA (Fair Credit Reporting Act) and many other laws and regulations. Any PI business performing this service is considered to be a CRA (Consumer Reporting Agency) and is required to have full compliance with all of the laws and regulations that govern FCRA regulated background screening. Additionally, the businesses that use those background reports have their own set of compliance requirements. Performing this service without being a CRA or without knowledge and strict adherence to these laws and regulations puts PIs and their customers at risk of significant liabilities.
Even if your PI business does operate as a CRA, by transitioning your employment background screening service fulfillment to Simplified Screening, it typically does not increase your expenses to perform the variety of searches and verifications required to complete a customer’s background report on an applicant, contractor, or volunteer. This allows you to dedicate your time and resources to strengthening other services you offer, while knowing your employment and other FCRA regulated background screening services are also as strong and competitive as they can be when they are Powered by Simplified.
