Background screening reports are generally assembled by collecting and verifying information from relevant sources, including county, state, and federal court records, employment records, educational institutions, and other authorized databases. Depending on the screening package, information may be obtained through electronic searches, direct source verification, or qualified records researchers. Results are compiled into a consolidated report, with applicable procedures for accuracy, identity matching, and FCRA compliance. The completed report is then made available to the authorized client through a secure reporting system.
Background records are researched by accessing authorized public records, court systems, government databases, and other relevant information sources. Depending on the type of background check, research may involve searching county, state, and federal criminal court records, reviewing available electronic databases, or requesting information directly from record custodians. Researchers use available identifying information to help match records to the correct individual, investigate potential discrepancies, and verify relevant findings when necessary. Results are compiled into a background screening report using procedures designed to support accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and applicable laws.
Background screening disputes are generally handled through a formal review and reinvestigation process in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). When an applicant disputes the accuracy or completeness of information in a background report, the consumer reporting agency reviews the disputed information, contacts relevant record sources when necessary, and corrects or removes information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. Reinvestigations generally must be completed within 30 days, although certain circumstances allow an extension. The applicant is notified of the results and provided an updated report when applicable. Employers must also follow applicable adverse-action procedures when making employment decisions based on background screening information.
