It starts with protection, both for employers and potential employees.

So how does the NAPBS assist background screening companies? It provides screening companies with assistance in the areas of legal compliances and ethical business practices. It also assists in educating such companies and can work as an advocate on legislative and regulatory matters.

The NAPBS also helps consumers who are the subject of background checks understand their rights and responsibilities as related to background checks.
