Why conduct an employee credit check?

For highly regulated industries like finance and insurance, it’s often necessary to conduct a credit judgement and litigation check on potential hires. Employee credit checks help businesses make informed hiring decisions and provide a comprehensive, future-proof solution to compliance with industry regulations.

“I can’t fault Zinc really, for me it’s been a seamless process even with changing the integrations from Workable to Greenhouse it’s been easy. As a team when it comes to the process we don’t even have to think about it really, which is a good thing.”
