Background Checks

The capacity to properly carry out an individual background check is a crucial first step for any organisation conducting new hires. When employment background checks are used as part of the hiring process, applicants tend to be of a higher quality and are less likely to be deceptive. Ashtree facilitates background investigations from entry level employees up to senior executives. Our analysts will work in consultation with clients to assure the proper measures are taken dependent upon employment type and the level of risk.

Ashtree’s background checks will enhance the hiring process. Our trained compliance analysts will conduct a full background investigation to confirm identity, education qualifications and previous employment. We will also provide a Character Assessment, which includes investigations of Global Media and News Profile, Watchlist Reviews and Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) Screens. Additionally, reference checks and independent verifications are conducted to further determine a client’s background and recent business practices. Effective background checks will save significant money, time and disruption over the long term.
