Background checking is a crucial process undertaken to authenticate a candidate’s or employee’s data within a company.
It typically involves confirming details such as educational background, employment history, relevant certifications, financial obligations, and criminal records.
The entity responsible for executing this process is tasked with gathering and processing information about the candidate, adhering to the legal boundaries set by law (for instance, Article 221 of the Civil Code in Poland), and always with the explicit consent of the individual under scrutiny.
