Background Checks

Know who you're letting in.

Whether you're hiring a receptionist, letting a stranger into your home five days a week, going into business with someone, or considering a new relationship — a proper background check gives you the facts. Not gossip. Facts.

What a check covers

  • Identity verification — confirming the person is who they claim to be.
  • Criminal record indication — SAPS-based check for a record on file.
  • Employment history — validating dates, roles and reasons for leaving.
  • Qualifications — confirming stated qualifications are real.
  • Credit standing — where consented to and legally permissible.
  • Directorships & business links — CIPC record of companies linked to the subject.
  • Social & open-source footprint — publicly available information reviewed by an analyst, not a bot.
