Background verification for Brazilian hires

Run background checks for Brazilian hires with a process in line with Brazilian labour laws.

Checks and features

Background checks built for Brazil's legal landscape

The only platform you need for background checks in Brazil and everywhere else.

Instant employment verification

Verify employment history in seconds, with Zinc’s instant, government-linked employment verification through Gov.br. Plus it’s thorough, covering all current and historic employment start and end dates.

Criminal check across an 11-court network

Zinc's Brazil criminal check draws on 11 separate court and tribunal systems, including the Supreme Federal Court, the Superior Justice Court, and Regional Federal and Labour Courts, with a seven-year lookback.

Support for LGPD and TST compliance

Brazilian labour courts have found that criminal checks without a clear, job-specific reason can be considered discriminatory. Zinc's compliance and legal team can help you think through whether criminal checks are necessary for the role that you’re hiring for.

Checks that work everywhere you do

Full visibility, transparent pricing, and adaptable checks for borderless hiring.

Industry-leading global turnaround times

Thanks to automated tech and near-instant results for almost two-thirds of checks, Zinc helps you hire faster. But don’t take our word for it. All of our turnaround times, including global criminal and education checks, are published live and updated daily.

Adaptive checks, not extra admin

A criminal check in Ireland looks a lot different than in India. Zinc helps you navigate the nuance, directly in the platform. All you have to do is select the check, and we’ll adjust the process and information we collect. Zinc gives candidates a smooth, familiar experience so they aren’t stuck filling in irrelevant fields, and helps your team stay compliant with local hiring regulations.

Integrated with your HR tech stack

Zinc integrates with 20+ leading global ATS and HRIS systems, including Workday, Greenhouse, and SuccessFactors. We also offer an open API, so you can build your own integration however you work best. All our integrations and open API are available at no additional cost, and most integrations can be set up in minutes without technical support.

Truly transparent pricing

Your invoice shouldn’t be a surprise. With flat-fee checks prices and no extra setup or integration costs, you only pay for the checks you run. Centralised billing keeps global teams on the same page, and unlimited references for one price helps keep you secure.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about hiring with Zinc in Brazil

Does Zinc verify employment history in Brazil?

Yes. Zinc offers instant, government-linked employment verification via Gov.br, one of only eight countries globally we have a live integration with.

What if a candidate doesn't have (or doesn't want to use) a gov.br login for employment verification?

Candidates can create a gov.br account using their CPF number, email or mobile number, and (optionally) bank account information. Zinc only accesses their name and CPF, not banking details. Alternatively, candidates uncomfortable sharing government credentials can use HR Employment Verification instead.

Can Zinc resell or redistribute a Brazil credit report?

No, Zinc will never sell, assign, reproduce or copy report data without the data partner's prior written consent, and candidate reports are provided only to the requester for that specific check.

Can Zinc run checks for our Brazilian employees alongside our global workforce?

Yes, that's exactly what Zinc is built for. Your Brazilian hiring sits on the same platform as your other international hires, so you’re using one centralised system instead of paying for localised solutions.

All your checks progress is available in a centralised dashboard, including country-by-country breakdowns. If you have multiple hiring teams globally, user groups allow you to share checks packages across Zinc without exposing candidate data to users who don’t need to see it.
