Step One SurveyII (SOSII)
Step One Survey II (SOS II)
Candidate Job Readiness Assessment
Before hiring, how much do
you really know about an employee's
attitudes about integrity, substance
abuse, reliability & work ethic?
Employee surveys reflect
the harsh realities of your
applicant pool:
- 56% of working people admit
they have lied to their
supervisors
- 41% say they have falsified
records
- 64% admit using the Internet
for personal reasons during
working hours
- 35% have stolen from their
employers, by their own
admission
- 31% abuse drugs or alcohol
The Enemy Within
Recent industry estimates
indicate that nearly 80% of computer
crime is committed by “insiders” at
an estimated annual cost ranging
from $100 million to as much as $1
billion. More than one-third of all
companies declaring bankruptcy last
year cited that they were "stolen
out of business" by their employees.
Upper-Levels Pose
Highest Risk
Employee theft and fraud
averages about $2,000 per employee
each year from your bottom line.
While rank-and-file employees have
opportunities to steal relatively
small amounts, executives may
embezzle tens of thousands, even
millions of dollars from their
employers. Could there be a better
reason to hire people worthy of your
trust?
What Questions Can
You Ask?
Increasing lawsuits have made
it extremely difficult even illegal
for you to ask important questions
to determine the integrity of a job
candidate. Past employers can be
held liable for information they
give you. If you choose to avoid
hiring suspicious candidates, can
you prove that you did not
discriminate? In the absence of
objective data, it is often
impossible to demonstrate that your
decision was made objectively,
without regard to gender, race, age,
etc.
Profiles International has an
effective hiring tool that empowers
employers.
