Quarterly Compliance Update, Q4 2018

Many of our customers use our services for contracting purposes to determine if an individual is eligible to work on contracted Customer work. For example, ABC Company has a contract with Bob’s Appliances to handle their warranty work. Bob’s Appliances will submit their employees, or contractors, to PlusOne to determine if they are eligible for contract work, according to ABC Company’s requirements. This is not the same as a pre-employment background screening, which is the responsibility of Bob’s Appliances and may be based on different criteria than ABC Company’s eligibility criteria. An individual may not be eligible to accept ABC Company work but may still be suitable for direct engagement by Bob’s Appliances to run service calls and other tasks. We understand some individuals may only be hired IF they can pass the requirements for ABC Company and we remind Companies, like Bob’s Appliances, to follow all appropriate local, state and federal employment, equal opportunity and consumer reporting requirements when denying an individual hire, based in whole or in part, on the results of a background screening.

While the PlusOne Solutions team will be hard at work to the end of the year, we wanted to ensure you are aware of possible court delays. These occur around Thanksgiving and Christmas dates with actual court closures, or rolling closures, to accommodate the holidays. We also see additional slow-downs as court staff take their annual vacation time to ensure they get their annual allotment.
