When you bring a temporary worker onto your floor, into your facility or in front of your guests, that person represents your business from the first minute. A no-show, a missing certification or a worker who isn’t cleared for the job can cost you a shift, a client relationship or, in healthcare, a compliance problem. That’s why screening is the part of staffing we refuse to rush.
What can go wrong without proper screening
Most staffing problems clients tell us about trace back to one gap: the worker was never properly checked before they arrived. Common results include:
- Workers who arrive without the certifications the role requires
- Missing clearances that should have been in place before day one, especially for roles with children or vulnerable adults
- Unverified work history that leads to poor fit and early turnover
- Lost time for your managers, who end up re-training or replacing workers mid-assignment
Each of these is preventable. The fix isn’t more paperwork for you. It’s a staffing partner that does the checking before the worker ever reaches your door.
How Eagle Staffing screens every worker
Every candidate goes through our screening process before placement. The steps depend on the role and on your requirements.
Healthcare roles
For CNAs, LPNs, RNs, medication technicians, direct support professionals and other healthcare staff, our credentialing includes:
- Two forms of identification
- Two professional references
- A physical and two-step PPD (TB test) or chest X-ray
- Current CPR or BLS and First Aid certification
- A criminal record check (Pennsylvania or the equivalent in your state)
- A child abuse clearance
- An FBI fingerprint clearance when required, such as for workers who have lived outside Pennsylvania in the last two years or who will work with children
Warehouse, manufacturing, hospitality and event roles
For hourly roles across our other industries, we verify identity and work eligibility, check references, and run background checks as required by the role or by you.
Your standards, too
Every client is different. If your facility, contract or insurance carrier requires additional steps, tell us and we will screen to your standards.
Why it matters for your business
Good screening is more than a compliance checkbox. It’s what lets you trust that the person who shows up is ready to work, so your team can focus on running the operation instead of double-checking the staff. It also protects the people you serve, from residents in a care facility to guests at your event.
It matters to us for another reason. Based in Philadelphia and staffing clients nationwide, we focus our recruiting in communities that are often overlooked, and a thorough, fair screening process is how we connect motivated, qualified people with employers who need them.
