  • Oklahoma Property Developer Sent to Prison for Money Laundering - 29 December 2011
    Oklahoma property developer sent to prison for money laundering - 29 December 2011 Derek Swann, a property developer in Oklahoma, has been sentenced to 40 months in prison for money laundering. Swann and his business partner Giovanni Stinson used false information to solicit investors for “The Falls”, their proposed commercial and residential development. According to the prosecution: “From 2006 to 2008, individuals invested more than US$5 million [about £3.2 million] into The Falls based on promises made by Swann. Swann then used investors’ monies for reasons different from what he told them: rather than paying for engineering, architectural or infrastructure costs... Swann used the investments for personal expenses and repayment of earlier investors.” Among the personal expenses cited, Swann and Stinson paid for golf and meals at the Oklahoma City Golf Club and leased BMW cars. The Falls was never completed. In February 2011, Swann admitted misusing some of the $255,000 put into the project by a Texan investor, and has been ordered to pay more than $4.3 million in restitution to more than two dozen investors. Stinson is awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty earlier this year to conspiracy to commit securities fraud.

  • In a Company, Payroll Is the Sum of All Financial Records of Salaries for an Employee, Wages, Bonuses and Deductions
    In a company, payroll is the sum of all financial records of salaries for an employee, wages, bonuses and deductions. In accounting, payroll refers to the amount paid to employees for services they provided during a certain period of time. Payroll plays a major role in a company for several reasons. From an accounting point of view, payroll is crucial because payroll and payroll taxes considerably affect the net income of most companies and they are subject to laws and regulations (e.g. in the US payroll is subject to federal and state regulations). From ethics in business viewpoint payroll is a critical department as employees are responsive to payroll errors and irregularities: good employee morale requires payroll to be paid timely and accurately. The primary mission of the payroll department is to ensure that all employees are paid accurately and timely with the correct withholdings and deductions, and to ensure the withholdings and deductions are remitted in a timely manner. This includes salary payments, tax withholdings, and deductions from a paycheck. Payroll taxes Government agencies at various levels require employers to withhold income taxes from employees' wages.[1] In the United States, "payroll taxes" are separate from income taxes, although they are levied on employers in proportion to salary; the programs they fund include Social Security, and Medicare. U.S. income and payroll taxes collected through deductions are considered to be trust fund taxes, because the employer holds the deducted money in trust for later remittance. [edit] Payroll Taxes in U.S. Before considering the payroll taxes we need to talk about the Basic Formula for the Net Pay.

  • An Exploratory Study on the Role of Corruption in International Labor Migration
    January 2016 An Exploratory Study on the Role of Corruption in International Labor Migration 1 2 Background In the 2013 white paper, “Corruption and Labor Trafficking in Global Supply Chains,” Verité detailed how fraud, corruption, bribery, and other illegal practices are common features of the international recruitment of migrant workers. The myriad official approvals, documents, and associated fees – foreign worker quotas, job order attestations, exit and guest worker visas, medical certifications, police clearances, work permits etc. – required to deploy a migrant worker from one country to another mean the opportunities and incentives for employers and their recruitment agents to bribe civil servants have become a structural feature of the international labor migration process. Since recruitment agents and employers ultimately transfer most, if not all, of the upfront costs of employment to foreign migrant workers, both of these Executive Summary Executive forms of recruitment-related corruption directly contribute to the excessive and illegal fee burdens frequently faced by migrant workers. In this way corruption is a significant contributing element to migrant worker vulnerability to debt bondage, human trafficking, and forced labor. Further, Verité and others have pointed out that the corrupt activities all too common in migrant worker recruitment also create potential legal risk for companies under origin and destination country laws as well as extraterritorial anti-corruption statutes such as the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the UK Bribery Act (UKBA). Because multinationals can be liable for the acts of their foreign subsidiaries, franchisees, joint venture entities, and even suppliers that use third party employment agencies under a number of legal theories including traditional agency principles, the risk arises where corrupt payments result in a direct or indirect benefit to an employer – an improper advantage – through cheap migrant labor or the avoidance of the upfront costs of employment.

Just as you thoroughly research and vet investment decisions for your business, the same degree of due diligence should be taken when screening potential employees. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, there are 92 million individual criminal offenders located in State criminal history repositories across the country. There’s a good chance some of them are currently job hunting. Whether you are new to the background checking process or a seasoned veteran, there are constantly new methods and tools available to improve your process and results. Every organization has a different approach and preference when it comes to mitigating risk and conducting criminal record checks. One thing is certain, criminal record checks are the anchor of most background checking programs, and employers in all industries are always looking for ways to get the most comprehensive picture of their candidates. WHY ARE BACKGROUND CHECKS IMPORTANT? The #1 reason for conducting background checks on employees is to avoid job fraud.
