ESR Canada Background Checks and Employment Screening

For Canada, Employment Screening Resources (ESR) recommends a nationwide search through a recognized Canadian Agency. A special release is required. The search is through the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC), managed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).

An individual in Canada may also go to a local police station and request a police clearance. It requires that fingerprints be taken.

For a search that is quicker and less expensive and does not require a special consent, attempts can be made to search individual courts in jurisdictions associated with the applicant. However, given the number of different courts and other factors, this search is subject to false negatives.

Canada operates under a strict set of privacy laws Personal Information Protection and Electronics Document Act or PIPEDA. PIPEDA privacy rules have a much broader application than just employment screening. ESR partners with a leading Canadian firm to assist employers in legal compliance in Canada.
