Message from our President

Hello!

In order to better serve our clients, Adams, Inc has created a referrals partnership with Integrated Screening Partners, a leader in the pre-employment screening industry.  In today's work environment, you must consider the following reasons to be more thorough in your new hire screening.

  1. Prevent Financial Loss - The average cost of a bad hire is 30 percent of an employee's first year earnings.  The average jury award for negligent hiring is over $800,000.  $40 billion is lost each year due to employee theft and embezzlement!

  2. Prevent Volatile Work Environment - One in six violent crimes occur in the workplace.  10-15 percent of all applicants have a criminal record.  Statistically, sexual harassment claims and disruptive behavior are on the rise.

  3. Prevent Fraud - 30-40 percent of all applicants misstate the facts on their resume.

Please check out the "Partners" page of our new website for more information.

Have your best month ever!
