EDUCATION,
EMPLOYMENT AND LICENSING ACCESS FEES
|
In
the past, HRPLUS has absorbed various
third-party access fees charged by some schools, employers,
employment verification services and licensing agencies.
Over the last several years, the frequency and amount
of these access fees have increased significantly, and
HRPLUS is no longer able to absorb
these costs. As a result, effective February 1, 2003,
HRPLUS will pass the costs of these
access fees on to our clients. This policy is similar
to the existing HRPLUS policy regarding
motor vehicle and court access fees, and is standard practice
in the industry. Statistically, a small percentage of
reports involve an access fee. For more information, please
contact your account representative, or call our customer
service department at (303) 670-8177. |

LOCATE
YOUR 401(k) BENEFICIARIES
|
It's
the end of the year, and your company may be looking for
lost 401(k) beneficiaries. Let us help with our Address
Locator Service. This is a search for a former employee's
current address and/or most recent address(es). This program
is available for the low cost of $6.00 per name. For more
information, please contact your sales representative
or call our customer service department. |

DISCOUNT
ON MOTOR VEHICLE BULK ORDERS
|
The
beginning of the year is a good time to review the driving
records of all employees who drive as part of their official
employment duties. To help you do this, we are offering
special pricing on motor vehicle reports during January
2003. The bulk discount rate is $6.00 per name - which
is a 30% savings! - plus state access fees. (Please remember
that for Pennsylvania, in addition to the $6.00 per name
fee and state access fee, a $9.00 fee per name applies).
Take this opportunity to ensure that your employees are
properly licensed, and reduce your company's potential
liability. To take advantage of this discount, please
contact your account representative or call our customer
service department. |

SERVICE
IN THE SPOTLIGHT: On-Site Testing With Medtox Profile IIA
|
Access
to products designed to interfere with drug test results
is easier than ever. A quick search for these adulterants
on the Internet confirms that fact. They are easy to find
and easy to buy. To defeat these products, STAT America
offers Medtox Profile IIA - an on-site drug-screening
device with built-in adulterant screening panels. This
revolutionary product not only screens for five different
drugs of abuse, it also identifies an individual who is
attempting to mask the results of his or her drug test.
Don't let an applicant beat your point-of-collection drug
screen! Use Medtox Profile IIA and maintain the integrity
of your screening program. For more information, please
call your account representative or call us at (303) 679-0010. |
