"Employee Screening – An Assurance Based Approach"

Best practice corporate governance extends in many directions.  Ensuring that employees are professionally screened not only adds to robust anti-bribery processes, but ensures that regulatory regimes are fully complied with. 

To provide evidence-based assurance that candidates’ details are accurate and to mitigate risks from potential “bad apples” in the areas in which we specialise, we have formed an association with Eurocom CI, a fast-growing specialist provider of professional screening services.

Whilst we accept the risk that a screening check may cost us a fee, we feel that providing clients with the opportunity of professionally screening candidates provides an altogether different level of service.

Our aim is to inform, not judge, thus helping clients ensure that they make the best possible candidate selections.
