Reduce risk and build safer workplaces with continuous checks
Continuous checks run in the background and notify you of reportable changes to your workers’ records in real-time—so you can keep your company and customers safe.
Increase visibility with real-time alerts
Background checks are critical to gaining an understanding of your risk before hiring a candidate, but once a background check is complete, the results remain static and could become outdated. Even if you re-run checks annually, you still lack visibility into behavior between them.
Continuous criminal search is a subscription service that surfaces changes in your workers’ records in real-time, utilizing sources such as county criminal search data, arrest record data, and Checkr’s proprietary data. This, in turn, allows you to minimize risk and protect your brand.
Powered by multiple data sources
Arrest records
Direct data integrations with prisons and holding cells across the US provide near real-time arrest records as pointer searches. If new arrests are detected, they are verified at the county level before being reported.
Checkr proprietary data
Individuals are monitored against Checkr’s live feed of background check data. If a change is detected in an individual’s data from another report on the same individual, a new search is executed and reported.
Electronic county search
Provided that an individual has a current address within a county with electronic records, a search is conducted every 30 days to identify any new criminal records.
Global watchlist search
Every 30 days, a search is conducted to identify whether the individual has been added to a domestic and/or international watchlist.
National criminal database
A search of this pointer database is conducted every 30 days to identify potential records. Any new records will be verified through an additional county search.
Sex offender search
Every 30 days, a search is conducted of all public sex offender registries nationwide.

How ongoing background checks build trust
Data shows that recent behavior is far more reflective of current risk than past behavior. Today, companies can reduce risk by adopting a real-time approach to background checks.
