As the security management team for a high-tech
computer company, your Learning Team must create a policy for conducting
background checks on individuals who will be hired and employees who will be
promoted. Create a proposal for a background investigations policy to be
presented to the human resources department for approval and adoption. Your
presentation should be appropriately focused so it best promotes your policy
proposal to the organization.
Write a
500- to 1,000-word policy that addresses the areas to be included in the
background check and the parameters by which they are investigated. Your
policy must include, but is not limited to, the following:
·
Objective, or objectives, of the policy
·
Specific areas to be investigated, such as criminal
history, driving history, credit check, references, and so forth
·
Duration of time for which each area is
checked
·
Specific criminal offenses that preclude
hiring
·
Actions to be taken if nonfavorable
information is discovered
·
Records retention and destruction
Create
a 7- to 12-slide Microsoft®PowerPoint® presentation
detailing the highlights of your policy and the rationale behind your
proposal. Includedetailed speaker
notes.
