Criminal Record Checks
Criminal Record checks are a quick, cost effective alternative to fingerprint based screening, but it is up to you to determine the possible risk that you may not really be certain of an individual's identiy. Criminal Records checks have been common practice for years as a quick way of screening that a known individual does not have a criminal record.
How It Works
An individual's name and date of birth are compared against the RCMP's database of convicted criminals to search for a match. In the event of a possible match you will be required to submit fingerprints to be certain that the individual you are screening is/or is not the one found in the criminal history database.
