What Is Passport Verification?
Passport verification is the process of verifying the authenticity of a candidate’s supplied passport as identification of the candidate’s identity and nationality. This can affect the candidate’s right to work and is one component of a comprehensive employment screening process.
Why Conduct Passport Verification?
There are many benefits of conducting passport verification:
- Confirm the identity, nationality and rights to work of your candidates to protect your business from liability and risk of hiring misidentified candidates.
- Safeguard the confidential details of your business from candidates who are not who they say they are and be protected from potential legal ramifications.
- Screening your prospective candidates will save you time and money in the long run by understanding from the outset whether the candidate is correctly identified and matches the employment experience provided.
- Candidates and employees who are not upfront about their identity and right to work may indicate a lack of integrity in their working behaviour.
