Criminal record verification

A public criminal record check is part of the rigorous background check conducted prior to hiring an applicant. This involves reviewing various publicly available documents to uncover the applicant's criminal background, if any. A criminal record check involves reviewing court records for civil and criminal cases.

Applicants are screened for criminal offenses with the help of access to publicly available online databases of the District Court, the State High Court and the Supreme Court of India. To ensure an absolutely safe workplace free of criminal intent, a thorough public criminal record check is absolutely necessary. With a criminal background check, you can be sure that you are hiring candidates with a clean record. This also includes checking the Litigate database. A Litigate database search will determine if a candidate's name appears in a protected or public database, such as a civil litigation database, a criminal database, and/or a law enforcement database.

Both Indian and foreign databases can be searched to determine if the candidate has ties to organized crime or has been named in a court case, and to check a person's criminal record. If a qualified professional organization does not conduct a criminal background search, such offenses can cause irreparable damage to a company's image.
