Tailor-made background checks and screening profiles

Depending on the responsibilities and potential risks of each position, choose from three different screening profiles. Our screening profile Light include Verification of ID-documents and a Criminal record check. The Basic profile covers standard checks, such as ID verification and criminal background check, along with a credit check and work experience from one reference.
