Non-Profit Employment Screening & Drug Testing
In the mission-focused world of non-profits, employment screening is crucial to maintain a trustworthy workforce and protect the organization and its members. Screening helps non-profits identify risks, comply with regulations, and guard against legal issues. These organizations, often working with sensitive groups or vulnerable populations, require screenings to ensure staff align with their philanthropic mission and values.
Non-profits, however, may struggle with implementing screening protocols due to financial constraints and lack of guidance. Selecting a cost-effective, reliable screening provider is essential.

Non-Profit Background Checks
Background ChecksBeyond employee drug testing, non-profit employee background screening services can help organizations take their risk mitigation and regulatory compliance efforts to the next level. As part of a non-profit pre-employment screening process, a background check uncovers underlying applicant details, such as criminal history, that could signal a potential risk to an organization.
With non-profit organizations typically following a mission to safeguard certain vulnerable populations, pre-employment screenings are crucial. Organization leaders often use non-profit employee background screening services to ensure employees can safely work alongside these populations. Not to mention, many dedicated donors also have high expectations for non-profit staff, further supporting the need for pre-employment background screenings.
There are many types of background check services readily available to non-profit employers. In addition to the more commonly sought-after criminal background checks for employment screening, non-profit employers can also use volunteer verifications and reference checks to ensure credentials are accurate and meet the expectations set forth by the non-profit organization.
From organization to organization, pre-employment background screening may vary. This is why it's important for non-profit leaders to have easy access to fully customizable screening services that can meet the specific needs and mission-driven focus of their organization. Register your non-profit organization with Health Street and schedule your background screenings today.
Non-Profit Drug Test Services
Drug TestsOne of the first lines of defense a non-profit organization can leverage to protect itself from costly liability concerns is applicant and employee drug testing. As part of the pre-employment screening, non-profit organizations can quickly determine if an applicant is at risk of potential substance abuse concerns that could pose safety and legal dangers to the workplace.
Depending on an organization's specific policies or industry of interest, a non-profit may also be required to conduct employee drug testing to ensure full regulatory compliance. Failing to comply with any employee screening regulations that pertain to non-profit organizations could result in costly penalties and negatively impact a non-profit's image, threatening support and donations.
Outside of pre-employment drug testing, there are also a variety of additional drug testing services that non-profit groups can use to protect themselves against liability and compliance concerns. For example, non-profit employers often implement a random drug screening policy to ensure consistent operations and encourage employees to continuously abide by organizational policies.
In the event of a non-profit workplace incident, organizational leaders may also incorporate post-accident or reasonable suspicion testing to help navigate workers' compensation cases, ensure workplace safety, and even aid in making employee termination decisions. No matter what unique needs your non-profit workplace holds, remember that Health Street has a service right for you.
