Employment screening for temporary, permanent, or seasonal roles.
We provide tailored screening solutions for retail employers to help you manage risk, meet compliance obligations, and build a reliable and trusted workforce.
In a sector defined by high customer interaction, large volumes of cash or goods, and a fast-paced workforce, the risk of reputational and operational damage from poor hiring decisions is significant.

We support a wide range of retail businesses, including:
- Supermarkets and high street shops
- DIY, electrical, and furniture chains
- Department stores and shopping centres
- Retail logistics and warehouse operations
Why screen staff in retail?
Protect against theft, fraud, and shrinkage
Retail environments are vulnerable to internal loss. Screening helps reduce the risk of dishonest behaviour—like stock manipulation or refund fraud—by identifying red flags before hiring.
Safeguard your brand and customer trust
Retail employees often serve as the face of your business. Screening helps ensure those in public-facing or sensitive roles reflect your values and protect your reputation.
Ensure staff have the Right to Work
With high turnover and seasonal peaks, it’s vital to verify candidates’ identity, right to work, and background. Screening supports legal compliance and helps avoid hiring mistakes.
Build a safer, more reliable workforce
From the shop floor to the warehouse, a screened team means fewer operational disruptions and a stronger culture of professionalism and accountability.
