The Benefits of Doing Background Checks

NATIONAL CRIMINAL DATABASE

Performing a national criminal records search is the easiest way to run a criminal search. A National Criminal Database search draws from over 505 million records from thousands of jurisdictions, including databases with terrorist and sex offender information. This national criminal background check is the broadest tool for searching county court records for background screening. Any records returned from our National Criminal Databases Check are always verified with a county-level search to ensure accuracy and that they belong to the candidate or employee your screening.

COUNTY CRIMINAL RECORDS

County searches are advantageous due to the depth of its search. It is the most precise search, managed and administered by a local researcher physically. As a result of this manual process, this search can take up to 3 business days. County searches are recommended along with Multi-State National Criminal Records Search to get the most comprehensive search available.

PAST ADDRESS & SOCIAL SECURITY TRACE

A social security trace is a research tool that can find alias names, mailing addresses, and other personally identifiable information associated with the subject of the report. The information gathered from a social security trace can help to identify additional jurisdictions in which to conduct criminal background checks and also ensure that a greater number of potentially meaningful records are associated with the subject of a report. Please note that the information found via this search is not returned to clients in screening reports or otherwise. Rather, it is used by Sapphire behind the scenes to deliver more robust public record search results.

NATIONAL SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY

Avoid putting other employees at risk and let Sapphire Background Check provide records from the national registry of sex offenders. Sapphire Background Check is allowed to obtain files from the U.S Department of Justice regarding Sex offenders, acquiring information from participating states.

STATE DRIVING RECORDS MVR’s

Driving records are necessary for future prospects whose jobs demand driving a company vehicle, using a personal vehicle for business purposes, and especially those in the trucking and other transportation industries. Sapphire Background Check attains information from the Motor vehicle Registry. It provides driving records, noteworthy traffic violations; suspensions, points assessed, and court results. Each state's report may differ. Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Washington require pre-authorization from the applicant before a report can be obtained.

DRUG SCREENINGS

Why do drug testing? An addict in the workplace can reduce or halt productivity. Effects of drug use can be unsuspected, and harmful to other employees and there is the risk of serious criminal activities occurring in or around the workplace. Sapphire Background Check works in partnership with nationally renowned drug screening companies LabCorp Solutions and Quest Diagnostics, to provide extensive drug testing. Drug tests available are the 5 and 10-panel drug tests which identify the use of illegal drugs, addictive prescription drugs, opiates, amphetamines, and more! Sapphire Background Check also offers in-house drug testing for instant results.

HEALTH CARE SANCTIONS

All types of health care organizations, such as hospitals, health systems, acute care facilities, specialty hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, and long-term care centers, use background checks to promote patient and employee safety. At Sapphire Background Check we use checks to verify that the health care worker has the qualifications to be granted privileges and/or employed and does not have a criminal history or disciplinary actions that would exclude the individual.

VERIFICATIONS

Not all applicants are 100% honest on their resumes and can be misrepresenting their education and professional background. As part of a background check, various searches are often ordered called Verifications. These verifications are conducted in the areas of Education Past Employment Professional Licenses Sapphire Background Check Verifications include checking past education, employment, and professional license to ensure the applicant has the qualifications you require for the position they are seeking.

CREDIT REPORT

Get clarity on a tenant’s finances and ensure that they are financially responsible, or not trying to live above their means. Sapphire Background Check provides reports on credit history. Credit reports can be very beneficial to employees as well. Ask yourself this question: if they can manage their own money, how can they manage my company? A credit report cannot harm a person's credit history in any way and it is not considered an application inquiry. A notification is sent allowing persons to know that a query was made.
