1/29/26 - Your franchisee candidates aren't employees. They're business partners investing in your brand. The person running your location in Dallas isn't the same risk profile as the teenager working the counter.
It's not hypothetical. One franchisee's scandal becomes YOUR headline. One employee incident at one location becomes a brand-wide reputation crisis. We're hosting a live session with the International Franchise Association to give franchisors more clarity into their background screening processes.
The Four Screening Categories Every Franchise Needs: We'll walk through franchisee candidates, location staff, and corporate team member screening.
The Compliance Landscape You Can't Ignore: Clean Slate legislation. Ban-the-box laws. Multi-state operations. We'll cut through the complexity and give you what matters.
Database Searches vs. Real Investigation: When a franchisee is investing in your brand, does a cheap database check really give you the confidence you need? We'll show you what those searches miss.
Building a Program That Scales: Practical frameworks for creating consistent screening standards across your network.
Whether you're a franchisor building your network, a multi-unit operator managing locations, or a franchisee who wants to know your fellow operators are properly vetted, this session was designed for you.
