马萨诸塞州药物实验室的一名实验室技术人员最近承认伪造药物分析报告并无视适当的实验室程序。警方在随后的调查中发现，她不仅没有按程序办理，还蓄意篡改样本。由于实验室的大部分工作都涉及刑事案件，因此在涉及制药公司证词的 34,000 起案件中，每一起员工的渎职行为都有可能引起怀疑。

调查显示，该员工从未接受过完整的背景调查。虽然她的大部分个人信息都得到了核实，但她的工作经历和教育背景却没有。这可能是因为她自称拥有的化学硕士学位不是工作要求。她显然以合理的能力完成了她的工作，尽管有篡改（以及她已经这样做了多长时间仍在调查中），因此从未引起她雇主的怀疑。

对实验室的影响可能是灾难性的。他们可能要承担民事和刑事责任，至少可能被迫重新测试过去十年的数千个实验室样本。当然，法院是否会针对这起丑闻寻找新的药物实验室服务提供商也存在疑问。失去这项业务对公司来说可能是致命的。当然，这一丑闻已经损害了它的声誉。如果公司对该员工进行更彻底的背景调查，例如检查她的学术和专业背景，那么这个巨大的问题本可以完全避免。现在，员工甚至可以通过完全彻底的检查，但仍然恶意行事，这当然是事实，或者 不诚实 . 验证员工对自己所说的一切的真实性和准确性，可以衡量该员工的整体真实性或撒谎倾向，并评估她的性格。验证简历信息准确性的雇主，无论该信息是否与工作相关，都会审查员工的性格以及员工。由于一名员工的渎职行为可能会破坏整个公司的声誉，因此了解您目前拥有或将要雇用的所有员工的一切信息至关重要。

解决方案是仅使用信誉良好、艰苦且彻底的背景调查服务，寻求收集有关其员工和潜在员工的准确信息的公司必须使用勤奋地进行背景搜索和报告的提供商。使用OffenderOneSEARCH发现暴力、毒品和性行为 罪行 . 他们还能够验证教育声明和推荐信，因此您的公司可以确保您得到的正是您支付的费用。仅使用彻底和准确的背景调查服务有助于使企业免受潜在责任的影响，并对其员工的资格和诚实充满信心。

A lab technician at a Massachusetts drug lab recently admitted to falsifying drug analysis reports and ignoring proper lab procedures. During the subsequent investigation, police found that she had not only not followed proper procedures but had also deliberated tampered with samples. Since much of the lab’s work involves criminal cases, the employee’s malfeasance has the potential to cast doubt in every one of the 34,000 cases wherein the testimony of the drug company was involved.

Investigations revealed that the employee had never been subjected to a complete background check. While much of her personal information was verified, her employment history and educational background were not. This could have been because the master’s degree in chemistry that she had professed to hold was not a job requirement. She apparently performed her work with reasonable competence, the tampering notwithstanding (and how long she had been doing that is still a matter under investigation), so her employer’s suspicions were never aroused.

The impact on the lab could be catastrophic. They could be held both civilly and criminally liable, and at the very least, could be forced to re-test thousands of lab samples from the last ten years. Of course, there is also the question as to whether or not the court will seek a new provider of drug lab services in the light of this scandal. Losing that business could be fatal to the company. Certainly, this scandal has compromised its reputation. If the company had done a more thorough background check on this employee, such as checking her academic and professional references, this huge problem could have been completely avoided. Now, it’s certainly true that an employee can pass even a completely thorough check and still act in bad faith or dishonestly . Verifying everything that an employee says about herself for truth and accuracy provides a measure of the overall truthfulness, or inclination to lie, of that employee as well as an assessment of her character. An employer that verifies the accuracy of information on a resume, whether or not that information is relevant to the job vets the employee’s character as well as the employee. As the malfeasance of one employee can destroy the reputation of the entire company, it’s vital to know everything you can about all employees you currently have or will hire.

The solution is to use only a reputable, painstaking, and thorough background check service such as backgroundchecks.com. A company that seeks to gather accurate information on its employees and potential employees must use a provider that is diligent in its background searches and reports. Backgroundchecks.com uses such advanced tools as the U.S. AliasSEARCH to ferret out aliases and assumed names via SSN searches and the OffenderOneSEARCH to uncover violent, drug, and sex offenses . They also have the ability to verify education claims and references, so your company can be sure you’re getting exactly who you paid for. The use of only thorough and accurate background check services helps to insulate a business from potential liability as well as feel confident about the qualifications and honesty of its workforce.
