Checking References & Hiring

In today's litigious environment, checking references can be tricky. You need explicit permission from candidates, and even then, employers may not be willing to provide references. 

Equip your Hiring Managers with guides, forms and resources so they're well-prepared to conduct reference checks in a manner that's compliant with employment standards and won't put your company at risk.
