Background screening for staffing and recruitment agencies
Place temps and candidates faster, with every check your clients require already done. Pescheck runs ID, right-to-work, reference, diploma and criminal record checks in volume, straight from your ATS. Most checks are finished within hours, and you pay per screening.
Trusted by 2,600+ organisations:
Screen hundreds of candidates without slowing placements
When a client needs 40 order pickers by Monday, screening cannot be the bottleneck. With Pescheck, you start a screening in under a minute, day or night, and send candidates in bulk. Each candidate gets a secure link to give consent and upload documents from their phone.
Your team follows every candidate in one dashboard: who is waiting, who is in progress, who is cleared. Most checks are finished within hours, so you can confirm a placement on the same day.
ID and right-to-work checks for temporary workers
Every temp you place has to be identified, and you need proof that they are allowed to work. Pescheck checks identity documents automatically against more than 31,000 document types from around the world. For non-EU workers, we check right to work before the first shift, so you avoid fines.
Every result stays in your dashboard. When a client, auditor or labour inspector asks, you can show who was checked, when and what the result was. Read more about the ID check.
Meet each client's screening standard
A logistics client wants an ID check and a certificate of conduct. A bank wants references, diplomas, credit and sanctions checks. Pescheck lets you set up a screening package per client or per role, so recruiters choose the right one and nothing gets missed.
You can send candidates a co-branded or white-label screening flow, so the experience feels like yours. When a client asks for proof, you share a clear report instead of a folder of scans.
Checks you can combine:
- ID verification and right-to-work check (ID check)
- Work reference check
- Diploma and qualification check
- Criminal record check (Dutch certificate of conduct, VOG, and international)
- PEP, sanctions and adverse media check
- Credit check and integrity check
Start screenings from AFAS, Bullhorn or your own ATS
Recruiters should not have to retype candidate details into another tool. Pescheck connects with more than 160 ATS and HR systems, including AFAS, Bullhorn, Carerix, OTYS, Mysolution and Connexys. You start a check from the candidate record, and the status and result come back to the same record.
Your admin connects the system once, without custom development. Building your own ATS? Use the Pescheck REST API and webhooks.
Pay per screening, with data you can trust
There is no subscription to sign. You pay per screening and receive one invoice per month, so costs follow your placements. For steady high volumes, a subscription is also available.
Pescheck is ISO 27001 certified and complies with the GDPR. Candidates give consent before any check starts, and personal data is handled securely from request to report. Looking at the full process? See our guide to pre-employment screening.

Governance & Security:
With screening, government bodies ensure themselves of reliable and trustworthy personnel
When it comes to compliance, every level of an organisation must meet certain standards. This is why employees in government-related jobs are screened regularly by their employer-to make sure they're qualified and safe enough for the job at hand; if not then there could be risks taken on behalf of other people which would lead to accidents or abusive situations.

Screen your staff in the financial sector and comply with international regulations.
It is becoming increasingly difficult for organisations to comply international regulations. In addition to ID verification, clients must also be checked for sanctions and PEP status. This should be easier, we think. That is why we developed a customer due diligence that, just like Commerzbank, Geldmaat and Lendex, lets you know within 20 minutes who you are doing business with.

Recruiters! Speed up the recruitment process with automated background checks
You are represented by your candidates. That is why you want to be sure that they are the right person for the job. A good job interview or a personality test already says a lot about a candidate.
