Pre-Employment Screening and Fraud

It is estimated that at least one in six CVs contain some form of discrepancy - most commonly dates of employment, academic and professional qualifications and undisclosed directorships. Pre-employment screening can help organisations to identify undesirable employees, who may be dishonest or susceptible to committing fraud, before they join the business.

The Fraud Advisory Panel has published a 'Fraud Facts' on pre-employment screening for organisations covering:

  • The importance of pre-employment screening
  • Common types of pre-employment fraud
  • How to conduct pre-employment screening and verify information, and
  • Taking action against fraudulent applications

The factsheet is available to download below
