With many retailers looking to beef up staff before the upcoming holiday season it would be wise of them to vet part-time employees the same as full-time. Although retailers want to maximize their seasonal profits, it is in their best interest to leverage the risk associated with new part time help by conducting pre-employment background checks on them. It is argued that part-time, temporary or seasonal employees should be vetted the same as full time employees as the risk of theft, damage or harassment remains the same and performing a criminal background check may catch an offender that may have become a repeat offender while working for you.
