It's Worth Doing Right
Whether recruiting staff or soliciting volunteers, selecting new people for your organization is a very important decision. Mistakes will be costly -- there are the expenses of identifying, interviewing and hiring replacements for terminated employees who perhaps should never have been hired. The new employee requires training, followed by a period of low productivity while "catching on." Then there are the additional expenses of legal counsel, and possibly litigation, if the departing employee did harm to people, assets or morale.
Today, more and more businesses, including non-profits, are attempting to minimize this potential problem by performing thorough background investigations on prospective employees before they are hired -- indeed a smart thing to do.
Hundreds of internet-based businesses have appeared offering to sell or rent access to large but incomplete databases of personal information. Unfortunately, important processes such as verification, follow-up investigation, analysis and report preparation are usually left to the client.
As a consequence, many companies are beginning to reach out to more established and experienced security consulting organizations, like Baker-Eubanks. Our firm has been providing accurate and complete Due Diligence Reports to businesses and non-profits for well over a decade. Our goals are simple and clear: to provide clients with reliable, up to date information and analysis that will allow them to . . .
make confident and intelligent hiring decisions
protect against damaging press and litigation
ensure the safety and security of the organization's employees and clients
"If it's worth doing at all, it's worth doing it right.”
