About Lexis RefCheck

Reduce the risk of placing the wrong candidate with Lexis RefCheck. Excellent employees are your organisation’s greatest asset, but a poor hiring decision can lead to reputational damage and financial loss.

Screening potential employees thoroughly before you make an offer of employment is vital to your hiring process. With Lexis RefCheck, you can verify all the details of your candidates quickly and accurately. Verify ID numbers and driver’s licences, conduct criminal checks and ensure your candidates have obtained all the qualifications listed on their résumés. Search for directorships not listed on an employee declaration and identify any possible risks associated with company ownership, all with absolute transparency and data integrity you can rely on.

Designed with the customer in mind, Lexis RefCheck promises to deliver quality assured verifications with integrity and speed, meeting all your pre-employment and background screening needs. Established in 2000 and acquired by LexisNexis in 2003 the business combines its considerable experience with expert systems and innovative methods to provide clients with comprehensive, efficient and fast credential vetting service.
