Overview

Why Employment Screening?

Employment screening is the process of verifying a candidate's background, qualifications, and suitability before they start work. In Australia, the checks you need depend on your industry, the role, and applicable regulations — but managing multiple checks across different providers is time-consuming and error-prone.

Refchecks brings all your screening checks into one platform. Initiate reference checks, police checks, identity verification, right-to-work checks, qualification verification, and more from a single dashboard. Each check runs in parallel, and you get a consolidated view of every candidate's screening status.

Whether you're hiring a single employee or onboarding hundreds, Refchecks scales with your needs. Set up screening packages for different roles, automate candidate communications, and generate compliance-ready reports — all without switching between providers.
