Question

Which of the following would NOT call for a more​ in-depth background check on a potential​ employee?

B. Lost licenses or accreditations
C. A​ negative, unfavorable, or false reference
D. Incomplete or false information on the application
E. History of drug or alcohol abuse

Answer 1

A. An explained gap in employment

Step-by-step explanation:

A thorough check of a potential employee's background is very essential before on-boarding the employee in an organization. A background check for employment includes identity verification, credit history, employment verification, criminal records, drug abuse history, education confirmation and many more.

An in-depth examination should be done inquiring for any false reference or false statements, any history of alcohol or drug abuse or for any incomplete information on the application of the potential candidate.

There is no harm in the application of the candidate if there is any explained gap history in the employment of the candidate. It does not require any in depth check on an explained employment gap.

Hence the correct option is (A).
