Do you “Clear your Volunteer?” Here at GroupOne Background Screening, we’ve been checking on volunteers of our clients for over 20 years. Volunteers are screened for the same reason employers conduct background checks – to verify identity and weed out potential problems.
Laws requiring volunteer screening ask for a check of criminal history and sex offender registries, especially in programs involving children.
Even without a legal requirement, most volunteer organizations believe it a necessity to “clear” their staffs.
Parents want the safety of knowing their children are safe, whether at school or softball practice. For adults responsible for their elderly parents, they want to know their loved one is not the target of abuse or crime.
In addition, for your volunteer background screening to be covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), it should be conducted by a third-party screening company such as GroupOne Background Screening.
Here at GroupOne, let us “Clear your Volunteer.”
