Employers are using ClearID and ClearContact to create and manage a qualified casual labor workforce
ClearStar, a leading provider of background check technology and services, is pleased to announce the launch of ClearID, its on-the-spot ID validation and face-match technology, and ClearContact, an industry-first electronic qualified labor address book. Together, this suite of solutions meets emerging demand for more fluid methods of background screening in the growing gig economy.
Using ClearID, employers can quickly verify the identity of a laborer by taking a photo of their face and their government-issued photo ID. ClearID then validates the ID and matches the candidate to it, returning actionable results in an average of under 5 minutes. ClearContact, a first in the background screening industry, is a one-stop shop for employers to organize their casual labor workforce, schedule them for work, and track the progress and results of any ClearID screen as well as any additional background screening services requested.
ClearID and ClearContact are pre-integrated with the ClearStar platform for maximum efficiency, including the automatic storing of a candidate’s signed consent, the automatic transfer of information from the photo of a candidate’s ID, and status notifications throughout the screening process. ClearID is platform independent and can easily be integrated into an employer’s current background screening program.
“In an economy that continues to trend toward a contingent workforce, companies are searching for effective ways to manage their casual labor on-the-go, ” said Robert J. Vale, Jr., Chief Executive Officer. “These products bring the value of background screening to the full life-cycle of human capital management by allowing employers to screen their candidates and then schedule them for work via call, text, or email in one place.”
According to the Wall Street Journal, the gig economy is outpacing economic growth across numerous industries. As these alternative work arrangements create new challenges for employers when screening labor, innovations like ClearID and ClearContact will provide them the tools they need to overcome their hiring obstacles and get back to business.
