Background Screening Efficiency Benchmarks
Managing employee background checks through disconnected third-party vendors often results in long onboarding delays and data privacy risks. Kiework integrates BGV directly into the hiring workflow, allowing recruiters to trigger checks and collect documents digitally with one click. The following benchmarks detail the speed and security gains achieved by moving from manual vendor coordination to an integrated verification ecosystem.

The Cost of a Bad Hire: Beyond the Salary
Hiring is an act of trust, but trust must be verified. A bad hire isn't just someone who doesn't perform well; it can be a massive liability. Resume fraud is rising, with studies suggesting that over 50% of resumes contain exaggerations or fabrications. In sensitive industries like finance, healthcare, or childcare, "Negligent Hiring" lawsuits can cost millions if an employee with a relevant criminal history causes harm.
Contextual Intelligence over Keyword Matching
Traditionally, Background Verification (BGV) happens "offline." You hire a candidate, then email their details to a vendor, wait weeks for a PDF report, and hope for the best. This disconnect creates delays and security risks.
Kiework integrates BGV directly into the recruitment workflow. You can trigger a check with one click from the candidate's profile. Consent forms are sent digitally to the candidate, documents are collected securely, and the status of each check (Criminal, Education, Employment) is updated in real-time on the dashboard. This seamless integration cuts turnaround time by 40%, allowing you to onboard verified candidates faster.
Comprehensive Coverage
Effective screening is multi-layered. Identity Checks ensure the person is who they say they are (crucial for remote work). Criminal Record Checks search court and police databases for red flags. Employment & Education Checks validate the core competencies claimed on the resume. For senior roles, we also support Global Database Checks (AML, Politically Exposed Persons) to ensure compliance with international regulations.
Data Privacy & Compliance
Handling sensitive personal data like criminal records requires strict adherence to privacy laws (GDPR, FCRA, etc.). Storing BGV reports in email inboxes is a compliance violation waiting to happen. Kiework ensures that all BGV data is encrypted, access-controlled via RBAC (Role-Based Access Control), and retained only for as long as legally necessary. We protect your candidates' privacy while protecting your company's interests.
