Keeping Compliant During Crisis
While COVID-19 poses some challenges to screening new hires, these strategies help companies conduct due diligence now and in the new normal.
By Debbie Bolla
For the last few months, organizations have been forced to think on their feet and devise human capital strategies in response to COVID-19. While some organizations have had to put a freeze on hiring, plenty of companies, including Kroger, Healthfirst, and Instacart, are on the opposite end of the spectrum, ramping up pools of essential workers. During this time of social distancing and state closure mandates, HR has had to enlist a bevy of approaches to get new workers on board. On that list: background screening.

Educated Evaluations
A new tech tool uncovers ways organizations can eliminate bias during the hiring process.
By Judd B. Kessler and Corinne Low
A growing body of evidence suggests that hiring managers and recruiters display bias against underrepresented minorities. These findings have come from a research method called a “resume audit.” But now, we have developed a new approach to measure firm preferences and detect bias in hiring practices: incentivized resume rating (IRR). Rather than putting the interests of firms and researchers in conflict, IRR combines those interests.
