“Without exercising due diligence background checks in hiring, employers risk mistakes that can result in legal and financial nightmares including workplace violence, unqualified employees, and theft and litigation for negligent hiring,” explains Rosen, a frequent speaker on safe hiring issues. “Similarly, failure to follow legally complaint hiring practices can result in regulatory actions and class action lawsuits.”
