Hire with Absolute Certainty
In a market of rising credential fraud, "gut feeling" is not a strategy. We provide the forensic data you need to verify identities, validate histories, and mitigate risk before you issue an offer letter.
Why Vetting is Non-Negotiable
In 2026, employee fraud and credential falsification are at an all-time high. A single bad hire can result in financial loss, legal liability, and irreparable brand damage.
The Cost of Fraud
Internal theft and payroll fraud account for over Ksh 500 Million in annual losses for Kenyan SMEs. Most perpetrators had unverified histories.
Credential Forgery
Recent audits show up to 15% of academic certificates presented in Kenya are either forged or altered. We verify directly with the issuing institutions.
Vicarious Liability
Failing to vet an employee who commits a crime at work leaves the Board of Directors legally liable for "Negligent Hiring."

Vetting & The Law
In 2026, background screening is highly regulated. We ensure your hiring process remains within the boundaries of the Kenya Data Protection Act and Employment Law.
Registered as a Data Processor with the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner.
Is it legal to check a candidate’s credit (CRB) history? +
Yes, provided the candidate gives explicit written consent. Under the Data Protection Act, you must also demonstrate that the credit check is relevant to the job (e.g., for finance or procurement roles).
Can we vet an employee after they have been hired? +
Only if your employment contract includes a "Continuous Vetting" clause. Otherwise, you require new consent. We recommend "re-vetting" for employees being promoted to sensitive leadership or financial positions.
How long does a background check take in Kenya? +
Basic checks (ID & DCI) take 2–3 business days. Academic and previous employment verifications typically take 5–7 business days, depending on the responsiveness of the institutions involved.
What happens if we find a "Red Flag" on a candidate? +
We provide a discrepancy report. We recommend giving the candidate a "Right of Reply" to explain any inconsistencies before making a final decision, ensuring your process is procedurally fair under Section 41 of the Employment Act.

The cost of a background check is a fraction of the cost of a fraud investigation. Secure your workforce, protect your brand, and hire with absolute confidence today.
