Prospective Employee and New Hire Screening: Legal Landmines and Best Practices

The recruitment and hiring process is an exciting time for employers and employees alike. It is also one fraught with legal landmines that can adversely impact employers, sometimes before the employment relationship starts and, in some cases, well after it ends.

While employers seek to find the best talent, a seemingly conflicting array of federal and state laws force them to walk a legal tightrope between "not doing enough" and "going too far." This situation is particularly true when it comes to screening prospective employees and new hires, including:

• Criminal background checks
• Drug testing
• Verification of identity
• Work authorization

Through the lens of real world examples, this webinar will navigate these issues, including the "do's" the "don'ts" and the best practices for maximizing your hiring process while minimizing legal exposure.
