Reduce Risks
Retail store background checks help you identify red flags before they threaten your business. You can make informed decisions about everyone you hire and protect your company from potential liabilities.

Create a Safer Environment for Employees & Customers
Pre-employment screening helps create a safer workplace by identifying individuals with a history of violence, drug-related offenses, or other concerning behaviors before you bring them on board. By screening applicants, you can prioritize your employees' and customers' safety and well-being.

Protect Your Company's Reputation
Background screening helps you maintain a positive brand image by ensuring that you hire people you can trust to interact with the public. By verifying an applicant's background, you can also minimize the risk of internal theft, fraud, or other detrimental activities that could harm your company's reputation and cause PR headaches.

Satisfy Specific Requirements
Certain background checks might be necessary to satisfy legal requirements or other industry standards (for example, drug testing for safety-sensitive positions in restaurant kitchens).

Why Should You Run Retail Background Checks on Seasonal Employees?

With a seasonal business, it's easy to think, "I'm only in business four to six months out of the year. I have to maximize profits. I can't afford to do background checks." But the reality is you can't afford not to. 


Seasonal employees often work more than one job. A self-employed hair stylist might drive for a ride-share company one night a week and pull an overnight at a call center for a global retailer. That's three different jobs where a lot of things can go wrong.

How Foley Helps Employers in the Retail, Food & Beverage Industries

Criminal Background Checks

Understanding a candidate's past—including any criminal history that involves employee theft, fraud, or other financial crimes—is essential since most retail workers will have access to cash, credit cards, and other financial data. By conducting criminal background checks, you can identify potential risks and make informed hiring decisions, all while shoring up your loss prevention strategy.

Education & Employment Verifications

Sadly, some people will lie about their education or past employment—or even about who they are. Don't chance it! A person who lies isn't the type of person you want on staff or interacting with customers. Our employment and education verifications provide peace of mind.

MVR Checks & Monitoring

In the retail world, many employees drive on behalf of their employers, making deliveries or pickups. You could be liable if they get in an accident on company time. While accidents do happen, you can mitigate the risk by making sure you hire people who have solid driving records. Motor vehicle record (MVR) checks and ongoing monitoring are smart ways to reduce your risk and keep our roadways safe.

Social Media Screens

How someone acts online can provide insights into how they'll act in person as they interact with customers and staff members. Weed out candidates with unacceptable behaviors, like racism, sexism, and bigotry. Our social media background checks are lightning fast thanks to AI and comply with EEOC, FCRA, and state privacy laws.
