Custom Payroll Services Adds Employment Screening Service

Custom Payroll Services, one of the largest independent payroll providers in the Mid-Atlantic region, has added employment screening to the list of services it offers to its clients to reduce the risk of employee theft, fraud and embezzlement.

"According to industry statistics, 50 percent of all resumes and applications contain false information and 33 percent of all business failures are due to employee theft," said Martha Burman, CEO and founder of Custom Payroll Services. "We feel so strongly about the importance of employment screenings that we've added it as another client service."

Custom Payroll Services has partnered with one of the most successful companies in the industry to provide its client with a customized, cost-effective solution for screening its job applicants.

"We know how hard our clients work and we don't want a bad hire to ruin the businesses they've worked so hard to build," Burman added. "Background screening makes good business sense."

Founded in 1995, Custom Payroll Services offers all the features and benefits of the larger national companies with the personalized service of a local provider. Located in Hunt Valley, Custom Payroll Services provides payroll and tax services to more than 400 organizations, ranging in size from 25 to 2,000 employees.
