A word to the wise: Please don’t ONLY do an ID check when performing pre-employment screening. It is essential to do a fingerprint check instead given the wide scale ID fraud in this country.
In a recent case an employer was required by circumstances to do a full fingerprint check for all employees. When the results came back the employer discovered one of their employees was representing themselves under a completely false name and had a long criminal track record.
Please do also make sure you have permission from employees/prospective employees before you do the check. This is essential under POPI.
