AVOIDING THE LANDMINES OF NEGLIGENT HIRING

Does your business struggle with recruitment and the hiring process? Are you a start-up and unsure of the onboarding documentation requirements to keep you out of trouble and in compliance? Does your business skip the background screenings? Or maybe your business is struggling to retain your employees?

Karen Shepherd, MSHR, SHRM-CP, Owner of HR by Karen, LLC; J.A. "Tony" Olivo, LPI, CPCI, a Director of Investigative Services and Board Certified Professional Criminal Investigator with Corporate Screening and Investigative Group, LLC; and Mark Fleagle, a Consultant with USI Insurance Services, are collaborating to help businesses, small or large, avoid the landmines of negligent hiring.
