White Paper - Application Fraud

We have all heard about job applicants that falsify information on their resumes. There are myriad surveys and statistics that point to the excessive abuse of resume fraud. What about , however, the percentage of applicants that falsify personal identifiers on their job applications? This piece will review the ramifications from a possibly overlooked and increasing trend of job applicants falsifying personal identifiable information on job applications to circumvent the identification of criminal records. Consider this, a recent survey by Morgan & Banks found that seventeen percent of male and seven percent of female respondents admitted to lying on their resume, and eighty percent of Silicon Valley employees admit to having lied on their resumes. Nevertheless, eighty-two percent of responding job seekers say they think companies are aware of resume padding and believe that companies perform background checks on the following: Resumes, however, are not legal documents. There is not much an employer can do if an applicant embellishes their resume. Moreover, if the employer does not discover the job seeker has lied on their resume, then it is highly likely the job seeker will follow suit on their job application too. Comparatively, employment applications are legal documents. If it comes out later that an applicant lied on their job application, the employer has the right to terminate the employee. While an employer may expect applicants to embellish their resume a bit and tailor it for specific jobs, employers may not be cognizant that applicants are falsifying personal identifiers such as social security numbers and date of birth. The implications of a job applicant falsifying their social security number are likely to first appear straightforward to an employer. False or inaccurate social security numbers may impose criminal and civil liability to an employer from a work eligibility and tax reporting perspective. What employers may not realize, however, is that false or inaccurate social security numbers may indirectly subject an employer to risk from a pre-employment screening perspective. From a pre-employment screening perspective, an incorrect social security number may lead to erroneous results or prohibit the request from processing altogether and obtaining accurate completion. If a pre-employment screening service is prohibited from completion, then the results should be evident to the employer and pre-employment screening company immediately. The employer and pre-employment screening company can simply ask the applicant to verify their social security number against what the applicant previously provided on the employment application. After, the pre-employment screening services can simply be re-run based on the updated social security number from the job applicant. This type of scenario may arise when an employer is performing work history verifications (where the social security number is usually required), education verifications, credit history reports, and similar services requiring a social security number. Additionally, pre-employment screening companies can typically provide a social security verification services. The social security verification service can determine whether the social security number is valid, the state of issuance, and year of issuance. Nevertheless, verifying the social security number does not necessarily indicate whether the social security number belongs to the applicant. The real paramount issue and the focus of this document"s next section though, is the verification or reasonable identification of the applicant"s date of birth. Why is the date of birth so important? Obtaining the job applicants correct date of birth is imperative because there are State and Federal laws in place regarding when an individual"s Social Security number may or may not be used, stored, or saved by a government agency. More specifically, government agencies such as State and Federal Courts, Criminal Repositories, and Department of Corrections have made policy decisions for the "non-use" of the

Workaholism and Burnout

In western culture it is easy to get caught up in the fast paced hype of current trends. It seems that there is not enough time to do that which we set out to do. Our tasks lists are longer than our meals with our families. Sitting down to enjoy our families or nurture ourselves is becoming a thing of the past. Unless we stop, look, and listen to how we are really doing or feeling deep inside. I am a single mother of a teenager and I know from first hand how to be an over responsible workaholic. Being a single mom puts me in a position of being the super woman. I have to cook, clean, organize, pay bills, go to work, take care of my daughter, be the absent father, among other things I am suppose to be or do because of my position of being a single parent. I dove into my career as an entrepreneur twelve years ago. I am in the service oriented business. My passion was to meet the needs of my clients and for twelve years I did exactly that. What I did not plan on was over working led me to burn out. I was forced to work so that I can provide and live a good life for my daughter. I thought that money was easier if I worked hard and was never home. I even worked two other jobs to make ends meet. What I found out is that my body can only do that for so long and then I got some sort of illness. This is when depression set in for me and it seems to be the highest emotional illness among single parents. I wanted to be the tough mom and the one who could "do it all" and prove to the world that I can do anything! Well, that was all wrong. The workaholic and burnout came together and I crashed. I hated my every day life, and I hated going to work, and I hated what I use to love to do. Personally and professionally I thought I had it made. Wrong again. My focus was on meeting the needs of my clients and I neglected myself and everyone else around me, including my daughter. She did not deserve that but I felt I had no choice in the matter. we all have choices and I finally took a long look at what I had been doing with my life and how it affected the lives of those around me. Yes, I would have done things differently, but I guess it was my time to learn that over working and burnout became a blessing. Why was it a sign of a blessing? Well, once I realized that I was an over doer, I took that break I needed and realized I am a better person for having gone through all what I did. I want to help others who work too much and I want them to get the help they need before they feel guilty or regret some of the things I did. My motto: "Live with No Regrets". My advice to avoid burnout is to read articles now before it happens. Look for the signs written. If you have lost your lust for life and you are negative every day, get some help. Depression either has set in or you need to get help for your depressed thoughts. When you are depressed it affects others even if you do not think it does. My only wish is that whether you are a single parent or not, over working and burnout usually go hand in hand please do not wait until its too late to get the help you need. Stop, look, and listen to the real you on the inside. Above all remember there is a higher power that cares enough about you that, "this too shall pass."
