Current topic: Background Screenings: Pre Employment Screening Lowers Employee Turnover in Hotels Background screenings are important when hiring new employees, especially when workers perform duties that aren't always supervised. The hotel industry is a good example of how employers are using background checks to hire and retain the best candidates for the job. According to Hotel and Motel Management, it's standard practice to perform a comprehensive pre employment background screening on hotel employees. In addition to interviews that include more behavioral questions, potential new-hires undergo drug testing, criminal background checks and inmate searches so hotels know who they're hiring. Florida hotels, in particular, find pre employment background screenings necessary because Florida is considered the state where many go in search of new beginnings. Human resource managers report that background investigations have helped identify people with violent incidents, theft and other problems. Employee background screenings are a sound investment for all types of businesses and will deter undesirable candidates from applying. A hotel in Los Angeles informs job candidates three times during an interview that a comprehensive background screening will be required. People with questionable backgrounds are likely to simply walk out. Human resource managers report low turnover rates as a result of performing background checks. One hotel executive cites a turnover of under 15% due to taking the time to perform background investigations and hire the right employees.
