Remote hiring is no longer a trend, it’s the new standard. At The Background Check Company, we make it possible for Canadian employers to verify candidate identities and work eligibility without the need for in-person onboarding.
Whether you’re hiring newcomers to Canada, remote workers across provinces, or international candidates with job offers, our digital screening tools help you verify identities, work permits, and legal status, quickly, securely, and fully compliant with Canadian privacy and employment laws.
We’ve designed our platform to help employers:
Meet compliance under PIPEDA and relevant Employment Standards Acts
Our team actively monitors Canadian labour and immigration regulations to ensure our tools align with evolving policy. With growing demand for remote and cross-border talent, we work to make digital identity screening more accessible and effective for employers of all sizes.
Whether you’re onboarding workers under the Express Entry, Global Talent Stream, or Provincial Nominee Programs, our solution ensures you’re screening accurately while staying compliant with federal and provincial requirements.
Built by experts in biometric verification, document validation, and employment compliance, our system is trusted by Canadian companies looking to streamline hiring and reduce onboarding risk, all while creating a smoother experience for candidates.
With The Background Check Company’s government-compliant digital ID verification, confirming a candidate’s identity and legal right to work in Canada is simple, secure, and remote-friendly.
Using only the candidate’s smartphone, our platform captures and authenticates government-issued documents (such as a Canadian driver’s licence, PR card, or passport) and verifies biometric data (e.g., live selfie match), ensuring the documents are valid and truly belong to the applicant.
Our advanced technology improves the accuracy of ID verification, streamlines your hiring process, and reduces risk across your onboarding workflow. With digital screening as part of your pre-employment checks, you can be confident that your new hires are who they claim to be, and have the legal right to work in Canada.
Remote work offers significant benefits, from expanding your talent pool to reducing office overhead. Employers across Canada are increasingly hiring from outside their immediate region or province, or welcoming internationally hired candidates relocating under work permits or immigration programs.
But remote recruitment also introduces new challenges and risks. Without reliable digital tools, reviewing documents like SIN cards, immigration permits, or identity papers can be difficult, leaving employers vulnerable to identity fraud, false claims, and costly compliance violations.
At The Background Check Company, we help you close those gaps with secure, accurate, and fast verification tools, so you can hire confidently while protecting your business from reputational and legal risk.
