6 Reasons You Should Order a Nationwide Sex Offender Registry Search

Nationwide sex offender registry searches provide crucial real-time information about convicted sex offenders following their release into your community.

  1. A total of 780,407 people were listed on state sex offender registries as of 2021 — an increase of about 4% from 2019.
  2. In 2016, 75% of female employees reported experiencing 1 or more specific sexually-based behaviors in the workplace.
  3. 73.9% of employees want tools and standardized processes when managing misconduct reporting.
  4. About 12-24% of sex offenders will re-offend with violent and non-violent crimes.
  5. We recommend running a nationwide sex offender registry search before you make a job offer, hire a temporary or part time worker, or add a new volunteer.
  6. Unlike database-driven searches, Verified First delivers up-to-date information directly from the national registry, every time.
