Employee theft and fraud is everywhere. Some industries that used temporary employees report finding criminal histories on 60 percent of their job applicants.

Our "pre-employment screening" program is designed to provide employers with detailed information on the backgrounds of prospective employees. This information can be used in making hiring decisions to aid employers in reducing losses from employee theft and fraud. At Cotal Systems, Inc. we believe that one size does not fit all, and will customize a solution for YOU based upon your industry being filled, types of positions, and budget.
