Pharmaceutical
There is an ever-present threat of corporate and competitor espionage, activist infiltration and research leakage posed by hiring the wrong individual within the pharmaceutical industry. Reed Screening’s experts understand this and as such, we’ve defined best practice screening packages to ensure that your organisation only takes on staff who have been screened to the highest standard.
Reed Screening provides screening packages designed specifically for the needs of the pharmaceutical industry, with packages pre-tailored to mitigate risk when hiring for popular roles such as assistant pharmacists, pharmacists or pharmaceutical directors. We cover everything from permanent hires and fixed term contractors, to temporary/agency supply chain.
With a minimum of effort on your part, we can provide you with the assurance that your business needs to mitigate risk and safeguard your reputation, while focusing on what you do best.
