An employee arrest can be an early indicator of concerning behavior that could pose a threat to the safety and reputation of your business.
Minimize the insider risk in your workplace with Arrest Access, an arrest monitoring service from ESS. This continuous search analyzes arrest, incarceration, and booking data from jails and corrections facilities across the country, alerting employers of reportable criminal activity shortly after the event occurs.
Why Arrest Monitoring?
While most employers understand the importance of pre-employment screening, many fail to recognize the risks of criminal activity post-hire. Recent studies show that nearly 12% of currently employed individuals will be arrested in the next five years.
Different than a pre-employment background check or periodic rescreens that look back over past criminal convictions, Arrest Access monitors data in near real-time.

Action
Employers provide ESS with an employee roster to monitor. In the first month, a baseline report is conducted.
The roster is checked against a comprehensive network of incarceration information databases. Arrest activity is flagged for immediate research.
Our expert researchers validate each record’s accuracy by contacting the arresting authority and matching Personally Identifiable Information.
If the record is verified, ESS will deliver the employer a consumer report with the employee's arrest information.
With verified and FCRA-compliant information in hand, the employer can confidently decide how to proceed.
It's time to rethink your company's background screening program.
Let our experts build a monitoring program specific to your needs.
