FCRA-compliant employment and volunteer screening tailored to your organization, positions, and risk-management needs.
A Screening Program Built Around Your Organization
Every organization is different. Hiring practices, regulatory requirements, position responsibilities, and organizational risks vary significantly from one employer to another. Horizon takes the time to understand your organization before recommending a screening program.
Services can be selected individually or combined into position-based packages. Our team works with employers to identify appropriate screening components based on job responsibilities, industry requirements, access to sensitive information, driving duties, financial responsibilities, contact with vulnerable populations, and other relevant considerations.
Our goal is not simply to deliver reports. It is to become a trusted extension of your hiring process through professionally verified information, practical compliance resources, responsive communication, and dependable client support.
