Background Checks
Blackhawk has considerable experience and expertise in providing cost effective background check reports in the UK and internationally. Our reports offer an invaluable way for business clients to make properly informed business decisions.
The cost of employing the wrong person, or doing business with the wrong people, in damage to staff morale, business reputation, the cost of possible employment law or other litigation, or worst of all, fraud or theft, considerably outweigh the costs of background checks.
The advantages of business background checks Blackhawk provide include, but are not limited to :-
- Reference checks
- Business background and reputation checks
- Executive or consultant background checks
- Criminal / medical record checks (consent required)
- Judgment and litigation checks
- Academic & vocational qualifications checks
- Professional membership checks
- Checks on gaps / missing information on CV’s
- Identity checks
- Companies House Directorship checks
- Employment Tribunal checks
With background checks, there is a fundamental choice as to whether to advise the individual or company that a check may be commissioned or to obtain information covertly. In many cases, background checks should cause no objection from or difficulty to a genuine business partner. If they object to a request to co-operate (there are some checks which do not require express consent or co-operation) this will normally result in reconsideration by you as to whether to proceed with them before even incurring the cost of instructing us.
In addition to the obvious advantages of thorough, professional and speedy background checks, Blackhawk’s expertise saves significant time and resource . We have the experience and contacts to carry out the necessary checks on a fixed fee and time critical basis.
