Why do a criminal background check?
- 67% of criminals released from prison in 1994 were re-arrested for at least one serious crime within the next three years (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 6/2/02)
- The National Crime Victimization Survey, released by the U.S. Department of Justice in December of 2001, analyzed workplace violence from 1993 to 1999. On average, 1.7 million violent incidents per year were committed against employees at work.
- Nearly 60% of sex offenders are under conditional supervision (probation or parole) in the United States. (Bureau of Justice Statistics)
Criminal Records Screening
Criminal background checks go back at least seven years. Some states allow longer periods, but because of the lack of a workable national rule, the industry standard is a seven-year search.
