Hi All,
Recently we had sent an employee verification request to a local IT & ITES company which was requesting info like the period of employment and CTC etc. and we received the below mail.
"Hi HR,
With regards to the employment verification, the applicable fees for this verification would be INR 500/- per verification. Request you to make the payment for the same and the DD/cheque can be drawn in favour of “********************************”."
Normally do companies/organisations practice such things.
They are not a background screening/verification company and when some other company sends in a verification request about an Ex-Employee of theirs they responded like this.
We have not heard of this.
Every other company answers a lot of requests like this on a daily basis about their Ex-employees rt?
They say that it is their company policy to charge other companies for verification requests.
Request Senior member to comment whether this an ethical practice
