Need a Simple Checklist for Employee Background Checks – Can You Help?

bhatta73
Hi Friends,

I am responsible for conducting background checks (for previous employment) for both existing and new employees. Unfortunately, I do not have a specific format or checklist for this task. I would be grateful if anybody could assist me by providing a checklist for the same.

Awaiting your help.

Regards,

Hi,

Based on the client's requirements, you can initiate a reference/background checks process for your company. There are agencies that specialize in conducting reference checks for companies.

The background checks can cover the following areas:
1. Education
2. Employment
3. Criminal record
4. Residence
5. References

Take care.

Hi,

When conducting a reference check, you can gather the following information:

1. How long the person worked with the organization and the duration of employment.
2. Reasons for resignation upon joining and leaving.
3. Strengths and areas for improvement.

Additionally, you should assess the following parameters:

a. Integrity and character
b. Interpersonal relations
c. Result orientation
d. Overall performance record
e. Commitment
f. Discipline
g. Whether any disciplinary actions were taken.

Reference checks will initially be conducted with the previous employer, followed by the current employer after joining. I trust that I have provided you with the necessary details to a satisfactory extent.

Hi Anthony,

My name is Jabloon; I am not a frequent visitor of Cite HR, but whenever I require some kind of help, Cite HR has helped me a lot. My HR Head has asked me to design a professional format for salary negotiation or salary finalization form. My boss is coming this Saturday. Please help me get through.

Regards,
Jabloon

Hi,

You can find out the following when doing a reference check:

1. How long the person worked with the organization and since when?
2. What was their resignation reason when they joined and resigned?
3. What are their strengths and areas for improvement?

You also need to check the following parameters:
- Integrity & Character
- Interpersonal relations
- Result orientation
- Overall performance record
- Commitment
- Discipline
- Check if any disciplinary action was taken or not.

Reference checks will initially be done with the previous employer, and after joining, we will check with the current employer.

I hope I have provided you with what is required.
