Industry & Energy
Employees in the industrial and energy sectors have to deal with machines, hazardous substances, viruses, and vital infrastructure. It is therefore important to ensure reliability and create a safe working environment. See how we can help you with background checks for personnel in the industrial and energy sector.
Prevent risks in industry and the energy sector through background checks
Do you want to avoid unnecessary risks? Control of employment provides security and helps you assess risks. In the industrial and energy sector, it is important to be able to be sure of having qualified employees. After all, a possible wrong recruitment can have major consequences. Not just direct salary costs, but also lost opportunities, disruption to team performance, and customer relationships. By checking potential employees before they are hired, you can be sure that you are hiring competent and irreproachable staff.

Customising background checks for industrial and energy companies
For industrial and energy companies, security and reliability are crucial, especially when staff have access to sensitive infrastructure and information. By conducting thorough background checks, energy companies can ensure that they are hiring people who are trustworthy and well-suited for security-cleared positions.
A thorough background check is an important step in ensuring that the right people are hired for security-cleared roles.
Here are the recommended checks that should be carried out before the security clearance interview, customised specifically for the energy and industrial sectors:
A credit report provides insight into a person’s financial situation, especially if there are payment complaints. The purpose is to be able to discuss the economy and assess any risks that may affect safety. Since a credit report only shows the most recent financial status, a check with the Bailiff should also be done to get an overall picture of debts and payment notices. We also verify the name and address if necessary.
A review of the person’s social media presence (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, etc.) can provide insights into risk propensity and what the person shares publicly. This is particularly relevant for security-classified roles, as all (harmful or inappropriate) content should not be freely shared online. Which can later damage your business reputation. With the help of DISA's Internet crawl on social media, public, and dark web, you discover the risks before it is too late.
A search through open sources such as newspaper articles and online forums may reveal whether the individual appears in contexts that may question suitability for a classified position.
CV should be objectively correct. If there are gaps in the timeline, for example between employment and studies, these must be investigated. It is important that each time period can be substantiated with valid information. We help you check this information on the day and directly at the source. Reference taking takes place digitally.
All diplomas stated must be genuine and can be verified by contacting the issuer.
Check of company activity and possible board assignments, as well as involvement in associations, can give a better picture of the person’s responsibility and reliability in other contexts.
This check is included in the credit check.
To ensure that the person is not involved in any ongoing or previous legal proceedings, DISA's services may be used to check whether the person has committed a crime. It may also be relevant to request journal sheets from district courts or administrative courts for a more comprehensive history. Contact us and we will help you!
