有效的背景筛查计划为雇主提供了许多好处，包括保持合规性、提高雇用质量和减轻责任风险。然而，许多雇主可能在不知不觉中错过了这些优势，因为他们没有关注成功的背景筛查计划的一些关键特征。

通过了解其他成功的背景筛查计划的关键特征，您将能够成功设计或审查您当前的背景筛查计划以实现这些好处。

根据 2020年 观火背调就业筛选基准报告，领先雇主的背景筛选计划侧重于以下五个优先事项：

1. 注重及时性
注重背景调查的快速周转时间的雇主能够腾出人力资源人员从事其他任务，这对于建立强大的劳动力至关重要。此外，减少整体招聘时间有助于雇主竞争最佳候选人。如果求职者首先收到来自竞争对手的确认聘用，那么他或她可能会决定为竞争对手工作，而不是为您的组织工作。

利用备受推崇的按需就业背景筛选公司可以帮助雇主提高其当前筛选计划的效率。领先的背景筛查提供商可简化筛查流程、减少人工流程并利用自动化加速背景筛查流程。

2.
遵守法规 未能遵守法律法规可能会导致严厉的处罚。然而，与不断变化的法规保持同步可能具有挑战性。

雇主将遵守联邦和州法律和要求视为一项重大挑战，但会使用各种来源来帮助保持合规性。近三分之一的受访者依赖他们的背景调查提供者，而 48% 的受访者使用内部法律顾问。

领先的背景筛查提供商拥有多年的合规经验和专业知识，可以帮助建立有效的筛查计划。一些筛选提供商还在他们的解决方案中构建合规工具，提供额外的合规支持。一些提供商还专注于行业特定法规，例如医疗保健、金融和运输。

3. 集中项目管理
通过集中背景筛选过程，雇主可能会看到好处，包括更加一致、高效、准确和合规的筛选项目。集中的就业筛选过程还可以允许组织减少所涉及的软件程序和提供商的数量。许多雇主还通过定义背景筛选过程的计划所有权而受益，通常是人力资源部门。

领先的按需背景筛查提供商为雇主提供工具来构建简化的筛查计划，这些计划易于在大型组织和多个地点实施。

4. 持续自我评估

超过一半的受访雇主使用与其他软件应用程序和工具集成的背景筛选解决方案。63% 的人拥有与其招聘工具集成的筛选解决方案，53% 的人拥有与人力资源软件相关的解决方案，51% 的人使用连接到他们的求职者跟踪软件的筛选工具。

您的背景筛查计划是否具有这些特征？

By understanding the key traits of other successful background screening programs, you will be able to successfully design or review your current background screening program to achieve these benefits.

According to the 2012 HireRight Employment Screening Benchmarking Report, the background screening programs of leading employers focus on these five priorities:

1. Focus on Timeliness
Employers that focus on quick turnaround time for background checks are able to free up human resources personnel to work on other tasks, which may be vital to building a strong workforce. In addition, reducing the overall time-to-hire helps employers to compete for the best candidates. If a job candidate receives a firm offer of employment from a competitor first, then he or she may decide to work for the competitor instead of for your organization.

Utilizing a well-respected on-demand employment background screening company can help employers improve the efficiency of their current screening program. Leading background screening providers simplify the screening process, reduce manual processes, and leverage automation to accelerate the background screening process.

2. Maintaining Compliance
Failure to maintain compliance with laws and regulations could result in severe penalties. However, staying current with evolving regulations can be challenging.

Employers cite complying with federal and state laws and requirements as a significant challenge, but use a variety of sources to help stay compliant. Nearly one third of respondents rely on their background screening provider, while 48 percent use in-house legal counsel.

Leading background screening providers possess years of compliance experience and expertise and can help build effective screening programs. Some screening providers also build compliance tools into their solution, providing additional compliance support. Some providers also specialize in industry specific regulations such as health care, finance, and transportation.

3. Centralized Program Management
By centralizing the background screening process, employers may see benefits including a more consistent, efficient, accurate and compliant screening program. A centralized employment screening process may also allow organizations to reduce the number of software programs and providers involved. Many employers also benefit by defining program ownership of the background screening process, typically the human resources department.

Leading on-demand background screening providers offer employers the tools to build streamlined screening programs that are easy to implement throughout large organizations and across multiple locations.

4. Continual Self-Assessments
An annual audit of your background screening program can help reveal whether it is effectively meeting your hiring and risk mitigation needs. Background screening program audits also help organizations remain current with changing state, industry and federal regulations [VIDEO].

A well-respected background screening provider may be able to offer more tips for conducting internal screening program reviews.

5. Efficiency through Integration
A screening program that integrates easily with other tools can help organizations reduce human error by eliminating the need to manually enter information into multiple systems. Integration also makes it easier to capture data and business intelligence, which can reveal insights into the timeliness and effectiveness of the screening process.

More than half of employers surveyed use a background screening solution that integrates with their other software applications and tools. Sixty-three percent have a screening solution that integrates with their recruiting tools, 53 percent have a solution that ties into human resources software and 51 percent use screening tools that connect to their applicant tracking software.
