EMPLOYEE PRE-SCREENING
Behaviordata, Inc., has developed a method for screening
employees who are in positions that have a high potential
for legal exposure or in positions in which there is a high
potential for violence, abuse, or theft. This pre-employment screening is critical for police officers, firefighters, security guards, especially nuclear security guards, homeland security employees, and other emergency personnel. This process was
first developed for pre-employment psychological screening
and annual psychological re-screening of persons who are employed
at nuclear reactor sites. Since 1978, this process has proven
itself to be successful at preventing loss and workplace violence,
as well as in protecting organizations from legal exposure.
In addition, this process has never been successfully challenged.
It has been further refined so that it can now predict potential
problem employees with an accuracy rate of 95% or above, which
makes the process highly defensible in court. Also, since
this process was first implemented in 1978, no nuclear plant
using this process has ever been compromised by an employee.
Employee applicants are given a Minnesota Multiphasic Personality
Inventory (MMPI-2™
) or California Psychological Inventory
(CPI™). The test results are then analyzed by
computer, in several complex formulas, to:
- Compare the applicant’s profile to the normal range,
as well as to profiles of persons who may have a psychiatric
or characterological problem that could affect his or her
ability to perform the job safely, and could not be compensated
according to ADA or EEOC.
- Contrast the profile to the Behaviordata
database of people who have known histories
of violence, dishonesty, theft, and / or sexually
inappropriate, aggressive, or abusive behavior.
A psychologist who is experienced in pre-employment screening
reviews the computer-generated report. The psychologist identifies
those applicants who could be problematic, or who have indicators
of potentially high-risk or violent behavior. An applicant
whose testing indicates a potential for problem behavior will
be interviewed by a psychologist. After the interview, the
psychologist will make a recommendation concerning the suitability
of the applicant for the position.
BASIC EMPLOYEE SCREENING
The basic screening process is inexpensive. It can be applied
to a small or large number of potential employees with ease,
and does not require a psychologist to be at the job site.
IN-DEPTH PRE EMPLOYMENT SCREENING
For potential employees in extremely sensitive
positions, an organization could choose a more
in-depth analysis, which would include the CPI
and 16PF tests, in addition to the MMPI-2, those
tests are coupled with an in-depth psychological
interview.
CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS
Behaviordata clients may also wish to do a criminal background
check. Behaviordata works in collaboration with private investigator
firms that conduct criminal background checks. There are two
levels of checks:
Basic Criminal Background
Includes a statewide criminal history check.
Comprehensive Background

interviews of listed and developed references, verification
