Why does Wackenhut require a contract to conduct background investigations?
To protect both Wackenhut and your business by establishing service expectations and rates; formalizing mutually agreed upon payment schedules, and to establish respective points of contact in the event of contract questions. A surprise birthday party may be fun, but surprises in a business partnership are definitely not fun. Wackenhut believes in treating all our clients like our most valued partners, and that requires full disclosure and agreement on all aspects of that partnership. If that were not enough, we have a legal obligation as a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA to make sure that you understand your obligations to applicants and employees when using our background reports, and that is an absolute federal requirement covered in our standard Service Agreement.
