Forsythes

Background Checking

Where specific qualifications are prerequisite for a recruitment assignment, Forsythes engages the professional services of the International RISQ Group to eliminate the possibility of candidate fraud.

RISQ is Newcastle’s only fraud risk management company specialising in the provision of Employment Screening services, and is located within the offices of Forsythes. RISQ has more than 20 years of collective specialist experience in a field that has only recently been established in Australasia.

Once engaged, and with the permission of the candidate, RISQ will verify candidate claims and documentation by directly contacting the relevant organisation or institution (in the case of qualifications, professional associations, memberships and visas) or by searching various local and international public, regulatory and proprietary databases (for criminal history, bankruptcy, media and litigation).

All searches are fully compliant with privacy legislation and findings are recorded and presented within five business days.
