Integrate Pescheck with Absence.io
What is absence.io?
- Start screenings from Absence.io
- No retyping of candidate details
- Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
Starting a screening from absence.io
HR starts a Pescheck screening for a new or existing employee, without re-entering their details.
Employee details flow in
Name, email address and job title come from absence.io, so the employee receives the right Pescheck invitation straight away.
Status comes back
Progress is visible as far as absence.io's API allows, so HR can see whether a check is still running or finished.
Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
ID scans and certificates stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in the personnel file. The report is available to authorised users in Pescheck.
Where screening fits in an absence.io workflow
absence.io does not include a recruiting module. People usually enter it when they are hired: HR creates the employee, sets up their leave entitlement and working hours and adds their documents to the personnel file. That is exactly the moment when many companies want a background check completed, before the first working day or before the new colleague gets access to customers, money or confidential data. Screening can also apply to existing employees moving into a more sensitive role.
Without an integration, HR copies the new hire's name, email address and job title into a separate screening tool and tracks the outcome by hand. With the integration, the screening starts from the employee who is already in absence.io.
How the connection works
Pescheck connects with absence.io through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software. Your absence.io admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you choose which checks belong to which roles, such as identity, criminal record, diplomas, references or employment history, and our integration team helps you set this up.
Connect once
Your admin connects Absence.io to Pescheck through Kombo with a secure authorisation. No custom development.
Start screening where you work
Recruiters and HR start a Pescheck screening from the record in Absence.io. The candidate gets a secure invitation to give consent.
Follow progress in one place
Status updates come back to the record, so nobody copies data between systems.
Who uses it
The integration suits small and growing companies that manage their employees in absence.io and want a simple, GDPR compliant way to screen new hires without adding a full recruiting system. It works well for teams that hire regularly in roles where a verified identity, references or a certificate of conduct are expected, for example in finance, care, security or IT.
