What are sample questions that are asked during an integrity check?
- Have you, or any company you were involved in at a senior position at that time, ever declared bankruptcy?
- In addition to your work for your (future) employer/contractor or hirer, do you hold additional positions, such as voluntary work, board positions at foundations or associations, part-time work / employment with other clients / employers or otherwise?
- Do you receive financial compensation for performing any additional positions?
- In addition to the above questions, have there been any circumstances in the past that could call into question your reliability, expertise and integrity?
- Does your private financial liabilities and income and / or assets have an appropriate ratio to each other?
- Do you understand that, if the outcome of this integrity statement is negative in the opinion of the employer/contractor or hirer, this may have consequences for a possible future (employment) relationship with the employer/contractor or hirer?
How can an integrity check help prevent employee fraud?
Integrity checks can help identify potential red flags in a candidate’s history or behaviour that may indicate a higher risk of fraudulent activity. By screening candidates thoroughly and asking targeted questions about their past experiences and behaviour, employers can make more informed hiring decisions and reduce the risk of fraud in the workplace.
What should employers do if an integrity check reveals concerning information?
If an integrity check reveals concerning information about a candidate, employers should carefully evaluate the information and consider how it may impact the candidate’s ability to perform the job in question. Employers should also give the candidate an opportunity to provide context or explanations for any red flags that were raised during the screening process. Ultimately, the employer will need to weigh the risks and benefits of hiring the candidate and make a decision based on the available information.
