Criminal Record Checks

Previous Conviction Enquiries, known as Criminal Record Checks, are only the starting point of Background Screening. Although essential to know whether a prospective or current employee has a criminal record or not, it isn’t the answer concerning competencies, cognitive ability, or ethics in the world of work. We determine a candidate’s prior convictions or criminal record status with the South African Police Service (SAPS) via Afiswitch.

Fingerprint Checking

Estwill Traders can conduct these checks by capturing digital fingerprints and checking them against the AFIS database. We do the fingerprinting through our integrated system, INSIGHTS.

Why do I need a criminal record check?

Get as much information about your candidate as possible to make an informed decision.

  • Know your candidate
  • Decrease risks such as liability and potential loss of reputation
  • Comply with industry and company norms and regulations

How it works

Subject to the priority of a criminal check, there are three options available:

  • Standard: results within 48 hours
  • Premium: results within 6 hours
  • Priority: results within 90 minutes

ID Verification

Authenticate prospective employees’ and business partners’ identities. Validate an individual’s ID by calculating the check digit. We extract the date-of-birth, gender, citizenship, sequence, and other information. The Home Affairs ID Verification will provide registered details on an individual with a SA ID number.

Passport Verification

Estwill Traders verifies passports with the Department of Immigration South Africa. If the passport number does not appear on the Department’s database, a ‘No Match’ result is issued, which means they cannot trace the passport details on their database. The information on the passport will then be subjected to MRZ passport validation to try to verify it. We issue a report of passport validity after verification.

Work Permit Verification

The Department of Home Affairs issue work permits to foreigners with general qualifications who intend to work in South Africa. General work permits are valid for the duration of the contract of employment.
