What is IRIS Cascade?

IRIS Cascade (also sold as Cascade HRi) is a cloud HR system from IRIS Software Group, a UK supplier of HR, payroll and accountancy software. It covers core HR and employee records, absence and holiday management, employee self-service, reporting and an optional recruitment module, and links to IRIS payroll. IRIS aims Cascade at organisations with 200 or more employees and says more than 800,000 employees are managed in it, most of them in the UK.

Starting a screening from IRIS Cascade

HR starts a Pescheck screening for a new starter or employee without re-entering their details.

Employee details flow in

Name, email address and job title come from IRIS Cascade, so the right person gets the Pescheck invitation straight away.

Status comes back

Progress is visible from IRIS Cascade's side as far as IRIS Cascade's API allows.

Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck

ID scans, diplomas and certificates of conduct stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in your HR system. The report is available to authorised users in Pescheck.

Where screening fits in an IRIS Cascade workflow

In IRIS Cascade the employee record is the centre of everything. A background check fits once a new starter is created and before their first working day, or when an existing employee moves into a role that requires a fresh check. Organisations with staff in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe also need local checks, such as a Dutch VOG, which a UK-focused process does not cover.

Without an integration, HR retypes the person's details into a separate screening tool. With the integration, the screening starts from the record that is already in IRIS Cascade.

Connected through Kombo

How the connection works

Pescheck connects with IRIS Cascade through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software used by many HR tech vendors. Your IRIS Cascade admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you decide which checks belong to which roles, for example identity, employment history and references for most hires, plus criminal record, PEP and sanctions or credit checks for sensitive positions. Our integration team helps you map this to your setup.

Connect once

Your admin connects IRIS Cascade 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 IRIS Cascade. 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 mid-sized and larger UK organisations on IRIS Cascade that also hire in the Netherlands or other EU countries and need GDPR-compliant screening there. It is a good fit for regulated sectors such as financial services, where every new starter needs a verified identity and background.
