Personnel Pre-Employment
Vetting Service

Fraud and theft cost UK Companies in excess of £25 million each and every day of trading. Over 75% of business fraud and theft is perpetrated with the collusion of a current employee.

MORI in August 2001 conducted research that found that 33% of applicants admitted to lying on their CV or job application.

Moreover all government agencies and the police are strongly recommending that all organisation thoroughly security vet potential candidates. Indeed legislation is already in place for many vulnerable groups or industries.

Too often employees are dismissed and then are able to walk in to a job the next day knowing that their past will not catch up with them. This gives the perpetrator the opportunity to do the same thing again.

Statistics such as these clearly outline a worrying trend. The financial consequences of this trend place an ever increasing burden on business resources for example

Lost recruitment and training costs
Business progress halted until the right candidate is secured
High Internal Theft Rate
Legal and tribunal expenses
Damage to your business' reputation

In light of this, the government and many industries are now recognising the benefits of professional pre-employment vetting services and have acted to introduce this as a regulatory requirement or a standard policy decision.

Whether your business is regulated in this way or you simply wish to lower risk within your own organisation, SVS can help relieve the burden on your Human Resources Department by completing the vetting process on your behalf within an agreed time-scale and to give your recruiter piece of mind.
