If your company verifies employment history, you third-party passthrough fees associated with these searches. Industry verification databases charge these fees to automatically verify employment history. Checkr lists employment verification passthrough fees.
Please note that Checkr partners with multiple vendors, so charges may vary based on the vendor conducting the service. The fees are specifically called out in line items on the Checkr invoice. Checkr first searches available databases, such as The Work Number for Everyone, that charge a fee when the verification is successfully completed by way of checking that database. You may find a separate fee assigned for each place of employment being verified for the candidate. Rest assured, Checkr does not mark up any fees; instead, we send them in your invoice at cost.
