Candidates can now re-use data that they have submitted on previous checks with Zinc, making for an even more delightful candidate experience.

UK regulated companies have a unique challenge in rechecking because UK regulators have high expectations for rechecking existing employees. Global checking providers prioritise the US, where continuous monitoring is the norm. Cultural, legal, and privacy differences make their solutions a poor fit here. UK background checking providers, lack meaningful recheck support. That leaves UK regulated companies somewhat stranded. Due to Zinc’s sole focus on the regulated sector, we’ve tailored our product to meet the UK’s unique rechecking challenge.

In many ways, rechecking is a tougher challenge than pre-employment screening. Current employees are less engaged in the process than prospective hires. They’re also far more likely to scrutinise the experience closely, and to abandon it at the first sign of friction.

Zinc makes rechecking easier by enabling employees to reuse previous checks wherever possible. Today, candidates can seamlessly reuse Address and ID checks on Zinc, alongside existing reusable checks such as Right to Work, References, and Education checks.

Rechecks are the moment when Zinc’s unique reusability delivers the most value. Until now, though, many of our reusable checks weren’t commonly part of rechecks. For example, candidates often used a passport for their Right to Work check, but couldn’t reuse it later when an ID check was required—leading to unnecessary friction.

The most common recheck requirements are Address, ID, and Criminal checks. With our latest update, candidates can now instantly reuse Address and ID checks, cutting over 11 minutes from the candidate submission process.

Research shows the number one complaint about rechecks has always been the need to re-enter information. On Zinc, that hassle is reduced to an absolute minimum.

When you run your next batch of rechecks, you can reassure candidates they won’t need to dig out old ID documents or track down postcodes from rentals five years ago. With Zinc, they simply log into their existing account and complete rechecks in seconds, saving you from endless follow-ups and a flood of complaints.
