These checks are a standard part of many hiring processes, aimed at ensuring safe and reliable hiring decisions. They serve a crucial role in verifying the integrity of potential hires and are conducted with the consent of the individual. It's common practice, with over 70% of companies in India reporting conducting these checks for every new hire.

It's a delicate balance: employers must protect their interests and ensure workplace safety, while also respecting the privacy and rights of candidates. Adopting best practices for transparency and fairness is crucial for compliance with Indian laws.
