PreEmployment Background Checks and I9 Forms The Dos and Donts

Continuing Education This program has been applied for 1.5 recertification credit hours toward PHR and SPHR through the Human Resource Certification Institute (HRCI). Overview: Regardless of the size of your business, preemployment screening is a necessary hiring practice to avoid lawsuits and costly hiring mistakes. Gone are the days of a simple reference check and a few phone calls to screen new employees. Investigating the background of a potential hire can help minimize the risk of negligenthiring lawsuits. You and your company can be held liable for the actions of a new employee especially if you did not perform a background check. Likewise, The Immigration Reform and Control Act made all U.S. employers responsible to verify the employment eligibility and identity of all employees hired to work in the United States after November 6, 1986. To implement the law, employers are required to complete Employment Eligibility Verification forms (Form I9) for all employees, including U.S. citizens. Join us during this 90minute audio conference as we explore the ins and outs of pre employment background checks and verifying I9 forms.
