Individuals: Request your criminal background check
Skip to main content
We specialize in pre-employment background checks, such as criminal record checks, credit checks, reference checks, education verifications, credential verifications and employment history verifications.
All information received in the background investigation process will be maintained by Triton in confidential, secured files, with restricted access to only those who have a need to know. Learn more about our privacy policy.
Electronic identity verification (eIV) allows us to verify your identification electronically by simply answering a few security questions related to your financial status. The process is so simple it can be done from any computer- or mobile device – from the comfort of your own home!
Background checks help create a safer and more efficient environment for employees and help you provide your customers with better services.

Employment history verification checks are more common today than 15 years ago. By conducting thorough and complete employment history verifications, you can help ensure you’re hiring the most qualified candidates.
We clearly highlight any discrepancies between resumes and the results of employment verification checks. Our complete checks screen for costly past behaviours, such as theft, workplace violence, resume fraud, computer misuse, lawsuits, workman’s compensation fraud and sexual harassment.
Background checks are an important tool in gauging a candidate’s work history and experience. When going through the hiring process, a structured employment background check can give you insight from previous employers, insight you may not be able to glean from a individual’s resume.
Simply have your candidate complete a one-page consent form with the particular information you would like checked, upload it into your account and get the results with 24 to 48 hours.
An education background check helps ensure you’re hiring a highly qualified and well-trained candidate.
Simply have your candidate fill out a one-page form with the required information and submit it to Triton. If your candidate is in a remote area, or is not close to your office, he or she can input their information electronically and sign using mouse-for-pen technology.
In today’s global economy, a growing percentage of the workforce is internationally based. Triton provides International Verifications for all of its background checks, including education, employment and reference checks.
Our checks use advanced algorithms to check a person’s identity and previous addresses against millions of credit records.
Eliminate frustration by using Triton’s reference check service. An experienced Triton representative will conduct a thorough interview to gain insight into a candidate’s strengths and weaknesses. Typical reference questions focus on a dependability, honesty, judgment, character, strengths and areas for improvement.
At Triton, we understand that one size does not fit all; this is particularly true of reference checks. Depending on your industry and the positions within your company, you may wish to investigate or ask different questions to gauge everything from professionalism to safety in the workplace.
A Triton agent will ask you about the types of positions you hire for, which helps us formulate specific questions for the reference check process. We can also provide you with a number of questions (up to 20) that you can tailor to your liking. Alternatively, you can give us a complete set of questions that you deem appropriate.
Once we determine the questions, we load them into the Triton Advantage platform and every time you request a reference background check, we will use them to conduct your specific check and will upload the results into your account within 24 to 48 hours.
A driver’s abstract will give you vital information about whom you’re hiring. Since your drivers are unsupervised, they put your company’s integrity in jeopardy every time they hit the road.
A proper background check, including a driver’s abstract, helps mitigate this risk. Past behavior can be a solid indicator of future behaviors. By knowing a person’s driving record, you can rest assured that you will have a smoothly running fleet.
Outside of background check services, we can run additional checks on terrorist watch lists, public safety records, tenant screenings and civil court searches to further enhance your security and pre employment screening process.
We source these reports from one of Canada’s leading credit bureaus, which checks millions of credit files and ensures you get the highest quality results.
An employment search will be recorded as a “soft touch” and is not used in calculating credit scores.
Fraud is not exclusive to the financial services industry. Your company has assets, customer lists, customer information, intellectual property and equipment. If any of this information was compromised or sold to fraudsters or your competition, how would you manage the fall out?
