Employment Screening Resources (ESR) Releases New Training DVD for Background Checks

(PRLEAP.COM) Employment Screening Resources (ESR), a leading U.S. background checking firm, announces the release of a 36-minute training DVD on how to avoid negligent hiring lawsuits. Presented dramatically, the viewer gets to see what a trial for a "Bad Hire" case is like so that they never have to really be hauled into court and face a jury trial that could result in a payout of millions of dollars.

The DVD of a negligent hiring trial, filmed in an actual courtroom, demonstrates opening statements, cross-examination of an HR professional, testimony from an expert witness, closing arguments, and jury instructions. The DVD includes re-enactment of a crime as caught on a surveillance camera. Part of the training process is for viewers to act as jurors and to deliberate in order to reach a "verdict" based upon the DVD.

"Lawsuits for negligent hiring are among the fastest growing area of personal injury litigation today," said Lester Rosen, an attorney and founder of Employment Screening Resources. "This type of training may well help employers avoid multi-million dollar verdicts that can occur when a business fails to exercise due diligence by hiring someone with an unsuitable criminal record or false credentials."

The DVD is part of the training and educational materials available at http://www.backgroundchecktraining.com/, a new website sponsored by Employment Screening Resources that provides books, training courses, training DVD’s, and free resources on background checks. The companion book is the "Safe Hiring Audit," by attorney Lester Rosen.

A preview of the video is available at: http://www.backgroundchecktraining.com/Safe-Hiring-Trial …
