Identity Theft, the #1 consumer fraud complaint, is already a significant problem for the Security and Human Resource departments of companies nationwide. Companies need to do a very good job of I.D. Verification. Now however, one sees an even darker version of this already frustrating problem. Imagine the nightmare of trying to unscramble your credit record, your references, and your other personal affairs if your identity has been stolen. Then, ponder the ultimate nightmare and humiliation of constantly being arrested because your personal Identity Thief has now committed crimes in your name, you have become his or her alias, and you are now the Wanted person.

Unfortunately, it falls on the victim to clear up the criminal record. Getting your name off of a national criminal database can be a daunting task. "If you think clearing up a credit history is tough, try clearing up a criminal history", says Dr. John Allan, President of The Integrity Center, a firm recognized nationally for employee background checking, online employee records, and company risk management.

With rampant identity theft, employers are not only at risk for hiring criminals or perhaps terrorists, but their personnel records must be secure so that the company does not become a party to an Identity Theft. Put that thought together with coming legislation in Congress that will eliminate using one's Social Security Number as an individual identifier, and you can imagine what chaos that will cause for most company's personnel record systems.

The Integrity Center abandoned Social Security Numbers as key individual identifiers in 1996, and now in addition to providing fully encrypted Background Checking, the firm offers secure online Job Applications, Interview Notes, and Employee Files nationwide.

The Integrity Center, Inc., www.integctr.com, founded in 1984, and based in Dallas, TX, is a leading supplier of objective risk management information for business, industry and government. The Integrity Center and its website are a rich source of current information regarding the laws, procedures, and pitfalls in all areas of background checking and personnel records.

In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
