What is an employee background check (EBGC)?

FCRA Employer Obligations
CheckMinistry complies with FCRA, state, and local regulations. We follow guidelines to protect clients (e.g. not collecting ID numbers in South Korea, referencing PIPA). Employers must also comply with their local laws.
Does FCRA apply to companies with only a few employees?
Yes, FCRA applies to all businesses regardless of size. You can request consumer reports if they meet the defined criteria, regardless of employee count.

CheckMinistry's data security & privacy measures?

CheckMinistry's average turnaround time?
3 – 7 working days. Our SaaS model and full automation guarantee a turnaround time at least 50% faster than competitors due to our advanced screening system. No manual analysts or annual leave involved.
Why is Background Screening important?
Background screening is crucial for hiring. Candidates may hide flaws, posing risks like fraud or theft. Some countries require checks for sensitive roles or jobs involving vulnerable groups. Pre-employment screening saves time, money, and heartbreak.
How do some screening companies offer Instant Online Results?
Instant results are possible by using old public records, leading to limited and outdated information. Relying on such data can cause issues, so CheckMinistry avoids offering such checks.
Consequences of neglecting an employee background check?
Employee background checks verify qualifications, including criminal record, employment history, and education. Skipping this process can lead to hiring unqualified or potentially harmful individuals, risking team culture and data security.
