WorkPro + JobAdder: Automate Compliance and Background Checks Without Leaving Your ATS
WorkPro + JobAdder: Automate Compliance and Background Checks Without Leaving Your ATS
JobAdder is a trusted engine behind modern recruitment workflows, helping teams source, manage, and place candidates at speed. But for many recruiters, that smooth experience is interrupted the moment compliance enters the equation.
After a candidate is placed, the real work begins - chasing police checks, verifying right-to-work status, collecting licences, and tracking expiry dates. These steps are often handled outside of JobAdder in spreadsheets, inboxes, or disconnected portals. The result is manual effort, lost time, and increased risk.
It’s not just frustrating, it’s unnecessary. You already work in a powerful recruitment system. Your compliance process should work within it, not outside of it.
Why Manual Compliance is Still Slowing Down High-Performing Teams
Even in teams that run high-volume placements or have invested heavily in technology, compliance is still one of the most manual stages of the hiring journey. Despite using JobAdder to streamline candidate flow, many recruiters are still forced to:
- Send one-off emails to request ID documents or background check details
- Re-enter candidate data into separate compliance portals
- Maintain tracking spreadsheets to monitor progress and document expiry
- Follow up with candidates when tasks are missed or delayed
Every one of these steps represents time lost, time that could be spent building candidate relationships, closing placements, or nurturing client pipelines.
The consequences go beyond admin fatigue. Delays in verifying documents can push back start dates. Mistakes in compliance can lead to audit risk or contract issues. And in a candidate-short market, even a small delay can cause a top candidate to drop out and accept another offer.
Recruitment is a race against time. And manual compliance is the drag that too many teams are still accepting as part of the job.
What's at Stake When Compliance Lives Outside the ATS
The danger of disconnected compliance isn’t just inefficiency, it’s visibility. When critical screening steps, expiry alerts, and document records sit outside of your core recruitment platform, you lose control over your process.
There’s no shared view across the team. Expiry alerts are missed. Audit records are scattered. Recruiters are constantly context-switching between JobAdder, email, and spreadsheets just to confirm a candidate is job-ready.
And because this part of the process happens after the offer is made, it often carries the least system support, making it the most prone to human error.

In industries where job-readiness is non-negotiable, like healthcare, aged care, community services, or blue-collar staffing, this kind of risk isn’t just operational. It’s reputational. Clients expect fast placements, but they also expect those placements to be fully compliant.
What is WorkPro’s JobAdder Integration?
WorkPro’s integration with JobAdder solves the compliance challenge at its root. It connects your existing ATS workflow with a powerful compliance engine that automates background checks, right-to-work verifications, document tracking, and more.
When a candidate progresses to a certain status in JobAdder, for example shortlisted or placed, WorkPro is automatically triggered to initiate the relevant checks. Candidates receive pre-configured tasks like uploading a driver’s licence, completing an online police check, or verifying their work rights through VEVO. As each task is completed, the results sync back into JobAdder in real time.
No additional portals. No manual triggers. No extra admin.
It’s compliance automation, purpose-built for recruiters using JobAdder.
What is automated compliance in recruitment?
Automated compliance in recruitment is the use of software to manage essential checks and document collection without manual follow-ups or external tools. These systems trigger tasks based on recruitment workflows, track responses in real time, and flag risks like expired licences or missing documentation. It removes human error, reduces admin, and ensures candidates are verified and job-ready from the moment they’re placed.
A Smarter Compliance Workflow, Activated Inside Your ATS
Imagine the moment a candidate is marked as placed in JobAdder. Without switching platforms, a police check is initiated. The candidate receives a personalised request to upload proof of identity. At the same time, WorkPro automatically checks their VEVO work rights. If anything is missing or out of date, your team is alerted - not after the fact, but immediately.
There’s no need for spreadsheets. No need to remind candidates manually. No risk that something slips through the cracks before the start date.
This is what WorkPro brings to the JobAdder experience: the ability to move quickly, confidently, and compliantly without slowing down your team.
