Background Checks Demystified The goal of background checks demystifies is to answer those frequently asked questions that we get from HR Professionals & Business owners. We want to give insight into the current state of background checks and the compliance rules that are constantly changing. On this series we will cover everything from the basics of background screening packages to proper authorization and disclosure forms. The new laws in California, namely "Ban the Box" / AB 1008 will change the hiring, background screening and pre-adverse/adverse action process. For more details on AB 1008 check out the blog at the link below. https://www.fisherphillips.com/california-employers-blog/california-just-banned-the-box +++++ I am passionate about Risk Mitigation. I want educate business owners on what they can do to mitigate risk in their businesses and how protect themselves from those in their inner circle. I will also be providing some strategic advice on how to be prepared for, investigate and deal more effectively with litigation and workers comp claims if and when they arise. And now a little bit of background on me. I have been an investigative consultant to businesses and legal counsel for over 15 years. I am a license private investigator in the state of California and have testified as an expert in case involving Workers Comp, Counterfeiting and a variety of other civil cases. I own and operate my own Investigative Consulting business here in California and I enjoy speaking to businesses and law firms about current trends in litigation, technology and investigative strategy. I believe that businesses must implement certain strategies to mitigate exposure to Embezzlement, Fraud, Workers Comp Claims, Trade Secrets theft and many other employment related claims. In today’s litigious environment you cannot eliminate law suits, but you can implement practices to reduce overall exposure.
