North American region in the employment screening services market consists of countries, namely, the US, Canada, and Mexico.The employers across the US consider background checking as an integral part of their recruitment process.
As per a recent study, around 70% of the companies based in the US perform background checks, and approximately 80% of these companies also scrutinize criminal records of their potential candidates.The employment screening tests performed on applicants highly depend on the job profile as a type of employer.
For instance, for a job, which is not for a middle or high-level position, an employer might select low-cost options such as Google searches, reviews of social media, and calling references.However, for managerial or top-level positions, an in-depth background check is required, which includes a credit report.
Considering criminal records in the US varies from state to state. For instance, some state governments significantly limit the degree to which an employee's criminal records are considered by the employer such as, in Pennsylvania, an employer may consider criminal records only to the extent that it should not be related to potential employee's employment suitability.
The US has the highest number of immigrants seeking employment, which mainly consists of citizens of India, Australia, Canada, China, and the UK.With an objective to scrutinize and analyze the applicant's background, such as educational qualification, criminal records, credit records, medical tests, and employment history verification, the demand for employment screening services is continuously rising among the American employers.
Drug abusers percentage is comparatively high among the American job seekers, which has pressurized the companies to adopt employment screening service suites offering the medical test, which thereby is driving the employment screening services market.Furthermore, in Canada, commonly performed background checks include a candidate's legality to work in Canada, past employment records, and criminal record checks in certain cases.
Pre-employment drug testing is prohibited in the country; however, alcohol testing in certain safety-related job positions is permitted.Additionally, in certain provinces of Canada, the employers are required to take the written consent of the prospective employee in order to conduct a background check.
Also, permission to perform criminal record check differ from province to province. For instance, in British Columbia, an employer cannot deny employing an applicant because of past criminal records, which is not related to the proposed employment. Canada has the second-fastest turnaround time in the North American region. This is majorly due to the fact that Canadian companies implement strict laws and regulations to maintain the integrity of the company and the workplace. In Mexico, usually, consent of potential candidates is required to perform background checks, which includes credit history, criminal record, and condition of employment, among others. In case the potential employee refuses to perform background checks, then the employer has the authority to refuse employment to the applicant. The federal law governs the country's labor and employment laws, and the country does not have any particular law governing background screening. Hence, this above factors is anticipated to drive the employment screening services market.
