CRIMINAL RECORD SEARCHES

Criminal record searches are absolutely essential to avoid legal liability from negligent hiring. Determines felony and/or misdemeanor records.  Search by county, statewide, or federal court.
For employment purposes, we only return records back 7 years in accordance with the fair credit reporting act. 
Criminal record searches require Full name, date of birth, social security number, and address.  

Notice: 
Some statewide criminal reports have been found to be missing data. This happens when counties do not forward records to the state level. We have not had this problem with county records. 
MidSouth will not be responsible for data missing from state reports.

DRIVING RECORDS

Motor vehicle / DMV report is required for those who drive company vehicles.  This will provide the employer with a driving history on an applicant. Patterns of recklessness or substance abuse are frequently reflected on a driving record and a suspended license or poor driving record can expose a company to liability if the employee is irresponsible or negligent. Many State Licensing Agencies refuse to license a person with a poor driving history as being representative of the lack of responsible behavior. 

Motor vehicle / DMV report requires name, date of birth, and drivers license number, and state.

Motor Vehicle Reports require a signed release
