|
 |
In the states we can order background checks on people using certain companies. The reports include criminal history, past bankruptcies, past employers etc... It's pretty standard procedure for large companies to take these out on every new hire. I was just wondering if there is a European equivalent that anyone could recommend?

in germany the person who wants to get hired by a company has to provide something similar to the employer. It s called "polizeiliches Führungszeugnis", which is basically a criminal record or the lack thereof, if you re clean. Dunno about other european countries, but i guess they ll have something similar to that as well.

dk about that much background checking. I know that here it's standard to check ones criminal record ('certificate of good conduct' would be the literal translation), but other than that you have CV...

Interesting. So in Europe YOU provide your employer with the police record at hiring time?

I can't see how anyone could get 'past employers' info for anyone in the UK, unless the person applying for the job gave that information.
Do you have a system in the US, where after a certain amount of time, criminal records become spent and will no longer show up on a criminal records check?

Most jobs in Denmark require you bring a clean arrest record which you get at the local police station. Also for jobs involving kids and teenagers there's an equivalent. Sort of a childrens certificate. Dont really know why we need them both.

In our perfect totalitalian society there's not even need to provide info/criminal records, somehow everybody already knows everything there is to know.

I believe everything aside from a felony gets dropped from your record after a year or so. And felonies can also be dropped after a certain time period if that's part of a plea deal.

Well yeah, it's required :\
The info about your taxes and so are available only to the government, so if you want government job they'll have access to it anyways xD

Europe isn't a country. Each country has it's own rules, services and regulations.

Normal criminal records expire after some years(unless you try to get a job with the police), the child-record will never expire... ever! And you don´t get the child-record yourself, the gov gets it, so you cant tamper with that I guess(not that you can tamper with the normal one anyway).
Oh and for the record, its not most jobs i DK that require a normal criminal-record, just the low-income jobs. But it is up to the employer to decide if its needed or not... I always required it though.

In Bulgaria and private sector, you don't need to give anything other than CV and maybe degree of education.
