Aligning Human Resource Management with Recruiting Solutions

Boise, ID, September 29, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Recognizing that payroll and flexible benefits are only one piece of managing all of human resources, PayrollAmerica has expanded its product offering by adding background screening, drug testing, and applicant tracking to its menu of services. In concert with AbsoluteHire٭, PayrollAmerica offers its customers the latest and most cost-effective technologies in human resource administration.

A Good Investment
Using PayrollAmerica’s web-based service, clients can easily conduct background and credit checks, including verifying criminal records, worker’s comp claims, educational history, and more. Comprehensive career pages effortlessly integrate with corporate websites, thereby helping attract top talent. And a user-friendly interface easily allows one to control job postings, online applications, and benefit description pages. Finally, the powerful candidate management center has a résumé database which allows one to search résumés and manage communications and documents.

Consider the Facts
With 30% of businesses citing failure due to poor hiring practices (source: Dept. of Commerce), not investing in proper background screening and drug testing can prove costly. Consider the following:

• The average organization loses more than $9 per day, per employee and 6% of its annual revenue to fraud and abuse.
