APSCREEN Unveils New Background Check Educational Tools at Two Orange County Trade Shows
APSCREEN unveils background check educational tools for small- to mid-sized HR departments.
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA (PRWEB)
March 7, 2006 -- APSCREEN the world’s leading full-service Consumer
Reporting Agency since 1980, will unveil a new program to educate
businesses about the necessity of background checks as well as how
small- to mid-sized HR departments can protect themselves against
negligent hiring litigation.
“It’s unfortunate,” says Tom Lawson, CFO of APSCREEN, “that people
don’t realize how one poor hiring decision can ruin their company’s
reputation and bog them down in costly litigation. All too often our
customers come to us after they have had a bad experience. In my
opinion, that’s too late.”
Lawson continues, “Employers lose almost four out of every five
negligent hiring cases with the average jury plaintiff award being in
excess of $1.6 million. Not many companies can sustain those kinds of
losses. It’s my mission to let every company in Orange County know that
they must be proactive when it comes to their HR Management programs,
and that we are doing everything we can to help them understand the
legalities they face. We have developed an educational program that is
free to the public which we will unveil at two upcoming trade shows.”
The first trade show where APSCREEN will exhibit is the Orange
County’s Largest Mixer. The date for this upcoming event is Thursday,
March 9 from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm and the Orange County Fair &
Exposition Center, 88 Fair Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626. Map and
directions can be located at http://www.largestmixer.com/ocmixer
The next event is the Relationship Building Network (RBN) Expo
scheduled for Tuesday, March 28 from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the
Atrium Hotel, across from the Orange County Airport, 18700 MacArthur
Blvd., Irvine, CA. More information about this event can be located at http://www.rbninfo.com
Businesses are encouraged to come to the APSCREEN booth at either
exhibit and to learn more about how to obtain the educational
information as well as pick up a free report entitled “Employment
Background Checks; What You Need to Know Before You Hire Anyone.”
Companies also need to know that background checks don’t have to be
expensive. It’s critical to let experts show you how to do the best
possible job.
