All of Orna International’s background and due diligence checks are carried out by, or under the close supervision of, our Australian office. If it is necessary to sub-contract any part of the process, we only use agents known to us for several years and who are completely trustworthy. We monitor any sub-contracted work very carefully.

Orna International’s Australian staff are all specially selected and trained for this work. We screen our own employees very closely and impose a strict Code of Conduct on them. Every case has a Case Manager assigned to it and, they may be contacted at any time during our extended business hours.

In many cases, educational establishments or other information providers, charge a fee for their services. Orna International never value adds on secondary providers’ fees. What we pay, is what you pay.

Criminal Record:

Not available in the Philippines.

Previous Employments:

Orna International has a database compiled over many years, of common employers in the Philippines. Our contacts and multi-lingual staff enable us to provide you with prompt reference checks. We train our staff to take an investigative approach to reference checking and do not just tick boxes. Orna International looks for the information behind a reference check. We have frequently discovered facts important to a prospective employer, which other providers would not think to ask for.

Education/Qualifications:

Orna International has built up a large database of contacts with educational establishments and can obtain accurate, reliable confirmation of qualifications and attendance as far back as High School if required.

Previous and Current Address:

Philippine Government residential records are good in the Metropolitan areas, particularly Manila. In rural areas and the more remote islands, these are not reliable. Utilities records are also a reliable source throughout the country to establish residency within the last three months.

Civil Record/Bankruptcy:

Bankruptcy proceedings are reported in the Philippines and Orna International has access to these reports.

Corporate Data:

Corporate data is available in the Philippines; this consists of the senior management and shareholders of most companies.

Professional Memberships:

Orna International has contacts within most of the main professional bodies in the Philippines. We will provide accurate and reliable information about a candidate’s professional standing.

Disciplinary Record:

Philippine regulatory authorities are very helpful in providing this information. For non-regulated applicants we will speak to line managers and former colleagues, so you know the character of the person you are hiring, not just their qualifications.

National Regulatory Bodies:

ORNA SCREENING is fully acquainted with the requirements of all major national regulators, such as the FSA, SEC etc. and will produce reports to a standard, which will satisfy authorisation criteria, where relevant.

We are able to check Manila, Bacolod, Cagayan, Cebu, Davao and other areas.
