At 8.4% CAGR, the North America Employment Screening Services Market is speculated to be worth US$ 4,204.88 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights research, the North America employment screening services market was valued at US$ 2,809.45 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 4,204.88 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 8.4% from 2023 to 2028. Demand for time efficient selection systems owing to rising number of job applicants, increase in job immigrants amid globalization, and need to mitigate risks associated with fraudulent activities of applicants are the critical factors attributed to the North America employment screening services market  expansion.        

In the process of globalization, highly advanced countries have experienced a large incoming of job immigrants. According to Migration Data Portal, there were 169 million international migrant workers in the world in 2019. There has been an increased influx of immigrants in low-skilled and highly professional jobs in the US, Canada, and other developed countries. Notable job opportunities for immigrants occur in private sector, textile, apparel, and leather manufacturing; agriculture; information technology, computers, and other electronics; and administrative and support services sectors. In 2017, ~29 million immigrants were working or looking for work in the US, making up ~17% of the total civilian labor force. Mischievous immigrants may pose a risk to an organization's security and, eventually, to a country. As a result, countries offering job opportunities have laid down various regulations and prerequisites for job applicants.  A survey conducted by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has identified a need for a comprehensive employment screening service for job immigrants because of several factors. These factors include the focus on security post-7/11 incident, the rising number of terrorist activities worldwide, legislation or modifications rolled out by newly appointed governments, availability of technologically advanced solutions for quicker and efficient background investigations, an upsurge in the frequency of misrepresentation of credentials by applicants, and growing competition among applicants due to the scarcity of jobs post-recession. Thus, a tremendous increase in the number of job immigrants, as well as growing fraudulent activities by applicants, bolsters the demand for a thorough background check during the candidate screening process, thereby driving the growth of the North America employment screening services market.

On the contrary, concerns related to confidentiality of candidate data hampers the North America Employment Screening Services Market.
