Certificate of Good Conduct
Helping organizations, associations, and employees deploy a seamless pre-employment screening process to create a safer work environment.
The Vision
In the Netherlands alone 1,8+ million Certificates of Good Conduct are issued on paper.
More than 1 million organizations in the Netherlands process these paper Certificates of Conduct, about 340 are large organizations. It is legally mandatory for them to request, verify, process, and archive these certificates, in most cases annually and for each new or temporary employee. By providing a digital certificate these companies and employees all save money and time during the pre-employment screening process while creating a much safer work environment.

The Challenge
Pre-employment screening is inefficient and easy to tamper with.
Today the issuing and verification of a Certificate of Good Conduct by the Dutch Government is a paper process with the following challenges:
- It is a lot of work to copy and re-enter the data manually from the (paper) document into their back-office and archive systems. This is a manual, labour-intensive and error-prone process.
- The current paper document is easy to tamper with. Even more with scanned copies.
- There is no way to revoke the documents. If the facts on which the certificate was granted change (e.g. when the employee gets a criminal record), the paper is still valid and in circulation.
- The current pre-employment screening process is inefficient and costs days or even weeks. In this time, the new or temporary employee can't start working for the organization, which costs both the organization and the employee money.

The Project
Building the foundation for a European digital Certificate of Good Conduct.
The project leverages the power of the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) to build the foundations needed for a seamless cross-border pre-employment screening and issuing of Certificates of Good Conduct.
EBSI allows organizations to enhance trust in digital Certificates of Good Conduct. The objective of this pilot is to enhance the pre-employment screening experience for organizations and employees by allowing them to:
- Store, share, and present digital Certificates of Good Conduct.
- Seamless verification and recognition of these credentials, eliminating administrative processes.
- Prevent fraud and create a safer work environment.
