Does Your Company Do a Criminal Background Check for Every New Hire?

Many business owners focus so intently on reviewing resume credentials that they often neglect other important hiring concerns that could put their companies at risk for future litigation, theft, and other issues. Obviously, it’s important to verify that an employee has the right experience and skills to fulfill the job requirements, but none of that will matter if you hire someone with a questionable past and end up on the wrong side of a lawsuit or reputation-destroying controversy.

When You Need Answers Related to Criminal Records in New York City

International Security Services, Inc. (ISS) can conduct the effective criminal background checks you need to help you protect your business from easily-avoidable future liability concerns.

As an entrepreneur, you need to be aware of the type of potential problems you could be facing if you unknowingly hire someone with an undisclosed criminal past. For example:

  • If you hire someone with previous convictions or arrests for violence and that person harms someone at your premises, you may be held liable. Courts will often assign liability to your company due to a reasonable expectation that you should have recognized the danger based on that employee’s past.
  • Employees who have stolen or committed fraud in the past will often do so again. That could leave your company at risk for theft, embezzlement, and other problems.
  • New hires with a history of substance abuse may be more likely to have ongoing problems in the workplace, particularly if their abuse remains unresolved.

At ISS, we can help you avoid these and other problems by identifying problem areas that job candidates may try to hide.

Property Security Evaluation Report

Your Individualized Property Evaluation Report

Your site’s individualized property evaluation report contains information and analysis that you need to properly manage your site’s security needs. That information includes detailed analysis of the crime rate in your area, site access and parking protocols, and existing security infrastructure. Interior inspection includes analysis of emergency exits, fire suppression capabilities, and alarm infrastructure for emergencies. Exterior inspection includes analysis of structural defects, property lighting, and potential vulnerabilities in building access.

In addition to those inspections, our analysis also considered environmental factors, potential risks from older trees, outside property maintenance, and nearby crime that may overflow to the area. We also examined emergency response planning, including fire evacuation protocols and information supplied to residents about proper evacuation process.

 

Pressing Suggestions


We highly suggest a camera placement along this driveway, as the overhead cameras in the back parking lot may not capture all makes, models, and license plates of cars entering in and out based on the angle they are recording from. The best camera placement would be at the green circle closest to the sidewalk/street.
The common area is easily accessible, but based on the angle that cameras are set at the front lot, anyone can enter the basement common area concealing the side of their face that is facing the camera. This is not to say that the camera arrangement should be changed, but it is highly recommended to have coverage in this common area as the common area is on a lower floor not visible from the sidewalk.


However, a few fundamental problems exist when it comes to access control of the back parking (a big territory). Even though only two issues have ever occurred there, the wide-open access point to that lot may need to be corrected sooner than later as there is a significant uptick in crime in the 62nd precinct.

Furthermore, there are two fundamental surveillance blind spots along the driveway leading to the back parking lot and every common area.

Lastly, however unlikely it may seem, tenants should have resources and a physical guide for situations that may require an evacuation. Whether it be a flood or fire, each tenant should know how to use a fire extinguisher and where to evacuate to during a flood regardless of their proximity to a shoreline.
