Pre-employment-screening

A pre-employment background check involves verifying key information about a candidate during the recruitment process. This may include confirming their education, previous work experience, or other relevant qualifications. A background check provides the company with clear insight into who is being hired, reducing the risk of mis-hires and creating confidence in recruitment decisions.

Why carry out a pre-employment background check?

According to a survey by the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, 43 percent of employers have encountered job applicants who provided false or incomplete information that affected their chances of being hired. In the staffing industry, the figure is even higher: 73 percent of employers have experienced candidates attempting to mislead them with serious falsehoods.

At DISA, we know that people are critical to an organisation’s success. Honest and competent employees strengthen teams and contribute to better results. By conducting pre-employment background checks, you can identify discrepancies or inaccuracies in a candidate’s information and discuss these with them before making hiring decisions.

GDPR och behandling av personuppgifter vid bakgrundskontroll

When a background check is conducted, personal data about the candidate is processed. Therefore, it is important that the process complies with the GDPR and other applicable data protection regulations.

Background checks must be relevant to the position and proportionate to the role. The candidate must also be informed that a check will be carried out.

DISA conducts background checks in accordance with applicable legislation and ensures that personal data is handled responsibly and securely throughout the entire process.
