Healthcare providers have reason to practice “safe hiring” according to the results of a study which found that 11.5% of employment applicants (better than one in ten) carry criminal records. 20% of the workplace population is using alcohol or other drugs at the work site (Business Life, 2001). In addition, Employee theft robs owners of $20-$40 billion annually, with 75% of crimes going unnoticed.
