Why it matters
Retail businesses lose billions of dollars annually to employee theft, and the hiring process is the first and most effective line of defense. An employee with an undisclosed theft or fraud conviction doesn't become a risk on the job. They were a risk before you handed them a name tag.
Beyond internal theft, retail hiring carries customer-facing trust obligations that are easy to underestimate. Your associates handle customer payment data, assist shoppers in fitting rooms and private spaces, and in some formats enter customer homes for delivery or installation services. The reputational damage from a single serious incident involving an inadequately screened employee can outpace years of brand investment.
And in an industry where annual turnover routinely exceeds 60%, the pressure to fill open roles fast creates a constant temptation to treat screening as optional. It isn't.

Why Choose Us
Criminal screening that specifically captures theft, fraud, and financial crime history is the single most effective tool a retail business has for reducing internal shrink before it starts. We build it into every package as a baseline.
Store managers, controllers, and staff responsible for cash reconciliation, bank deposits, or high-value inventory warrant an employment credit check. We apply them to the right roles with proper FCRA disclosure and consent built in.
Loss prevention officers carry a heightened responsibility for store security and in some cases interact with suspects in confrontational situations. We include professional license checks and a more comprehensive criminal history review in our LP package to match that responsibility.
For multi-location retailers, we configure role-based screening packages that apply consistently across every store so your brand standard doesn't vary by market or district manager.
Retail can't hold a floor position open for a week. We turn around the majority of reports within 36 hours so your open roles get filled without leaving your floor understaffed.
Whether you run a single storefront or a regional chain, you pay only for the checks you run.
Build a screening process that reduces shrink, protects customers, and holds up under audit, with a PBSA-accredited partner built for the pace and volume of retail hiring.
