Study Says 48% of Employers Do Not Rescreen Employees
Although current employees present significant ongoing organizational risk due to their access to company assets, customers and other employees, a survey found that 48% of employers do not rescreen their personnel post-hire – only a 5% decrease from five years ago (53%), despite the opportunity that rescreening offers organizations to reduce their operating risk. For those businesses that do rescreen, the majority do so when employees are promoted or change roles. Just 10% of respondents rescreen contingent and/or contract workers – down significantly from 31% in 2013.
