- Staff background checks
This is scary that people even want this, because background checks give up no information. They are useless if they were useful then murders would be down.
In a theoretical scenario, if the lead programmer had a hacking charges, the company's compliance officer had identity theft charges, and the CFO had financial fraud charges, and the company never performed background checks to find this out before the hires, you would be completely OK with it? I personally think it would be grounds to sue on gross negligence.
