PURPOSE
A background check or background investigation is the process of looking up and compiling criminal records, commercial records and financial records of an individual or an organization.

Background checks are often requested by employers on job candidates for employment screening, especially on candidates seeking a position that requires high security or a position of trust, such as in private homes, school, hospital, financial institution, airport, manufacturing industries, product suppliers and government. These checks can be administered by private companies like Industrial Safety Training Centre. Background checks can be expensive depending on the information requested. Results of a background check typically include past employment verification, credit history, and criminal history.

These checks are often used by employers as a means of judging a job candidate’s past mistakes, character, and fitness, and to identify potential hiring risks for safety and security reasons. Background checks are also used to thoroughly investigate potential government employees in order to be given a security clearance.

Checks are frequently conducted to confirm information found on an employment application or résumé/curriculum vitae. One study showed that half of all reference checks done on prospective employees differed between what the job applicant provided and what the source reported. They may also be conducted as a way to further differentiate potential employees and pick the one the employer feels is best suited for the position. Employers have an obligation to make sure their work environment is safe for all employees and helps prevent other employment problems in the workplace.

Checks are also required for those working in positions with special security concerns, such as product suppliers, distributors, trucking, ports of entry, and airports (including airline transportation) and those working with the public including the elderly, disabled, or children.
