Volunteer Screening
Many organizations welcome and need continuous volunteer help. Charitable non-profit groups, child sports teams and churches, to name a few, are constantly recruiting and working with volunteers. However, these organizations are being faced with a new problem; volunteers who have questionable, and perhaps even violent, backgrounds. Safety for non-profits is increasingly compromised as the backgrounds of volunteers go unchecked. More so now than ever, these organizations need legitimate volunteer help.
Previously these organizations, on good faith, believed they attracted legitimate volunteer help. Unfortunately, the question has arisen on whether or not volunteers can be taken at face value. United States Homeland Investigations’™ (USHII) Volunteer Screening provides a solution to this problem. Conducting background checks and substance abuse testing on volunteers can help distinguish those who are reliable and legitimate volunteers from those who are not.
Unfortunately many organizations which seek volunteer help have limited funds to submit and complete background searches. As a result, many do not carry them out. We have many cost-effective solutions for non-profit organizations to conduct background screenings on their volunteers.
IMPORTANT LESSON FOR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
How much potential danger do these organizations face by not performing background screening on volunteers?
Organizations could face huge costs alone if a volunteer sues, steals, or harms another person while on the premises of the organization. The average negligent hiring lawsuit results in costs upward of 3.5 million dollars. Aside from the catastrophically damaging financial effects, the safety for non-profits and their staff members then becomes severely compromised. Thus, more organizations across the US are realizing that performing USHII’s Volunteer Screening is one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to finding legitimate volunteer help.
Reliable volunteers are indispensable. Consequently, ensuring the safety of everyone on their premises is a growing concern for these groups. United States Homeland Investigations™ produces low-cost and accurate results. Hence, finding reliable non-profit volunteers is no longer out of reach for any organization.
