Breaking Down The Compliance Essentials

The biggest issue employers and recruiters around Australia are currently facing is how to comprehensively screen and onboard quality candidates fast enough to meet client/business demands. In September, unemployment dropped 1.1% points to 8.1%, according to the latest Roy Morgan employment series data.


As businesses try to bounce back to pre-Covid productivity by operating with almost the same number of staff or more, the lack of people to hire is the heaviest ball and chain weighing hopes down from finally recouping the losses, even after more than a year out of the pandemic.  

 

These are unprecedented time for Business Owners, HR Managers and Staffing and Recruitment where the need to fill vacant roles faster is becoming a necessity. The failure to ensure screening compliance is addressed in a fraction of the usual timeframe could mean missing out on their candidate. Imagine waiting to get Police Checks and Work Rights Checks to return while your candidate is signing the employment contract with another company. 




This is where WorkPro is an essential compliance application to get all Police Checks, Work Rights Checks and Reference Checks in one system.  

Here are the compliance essentials you can’t hire without and can’t do without WorkPro. Let’s break them down: 

 

Police Checks 

 

A Police Check process needs to be fast, simple, and reliable, and provide official, trusted results. WorkPro allows you to complete single or bulk Police Checks online in 3 easy steps and have them turned around within the hour. You can request, track and manage all your checks within a single dashboard, saving time and removing the need for multiple systems. 


Work Rights Checks 

 

Every employer in Australia has a legal requirement to verify the work rights of their staff to work in the country and keep records to prove their compliance. You can easily verify a candidates’ visa conditions online with instant results, request single or bulk checks. WorkPro will then continuously poll the VEVO database and provide you with any updates automatically. 

 

Reference Checks 

 

It goes without saying that Reference Checks are an important step in the background checking process. It’s the best way to ensure employers gain the valuable insights they need to make informed hiring decisions. Automating these checks make it simple for busy employers to verify candidate information quickly and securely online, allowing them to hire with confidence and mobilise teams fast. 

 

Three checks, one platform. It’s that simple.
