Veremark and Helios announce new integration to support compliant hiring for global teams
Veremark has integrated with Helios, the AI-powered global human capital and payments platform, enabling Helios users to manage background checks directly within their existing HR and compliance workflows.
This integration simplifies the process of verifying new hires across borders, helping companies meet local employment regulations and reduce manual onboarding tasks. HR and operations teams can now initiate checks, track progress, and access completed reports—all without leaving the Helios platform.
Managing risk in complex hiring environments
Global teams face a complex hiring landscape. With employment laws, onboarding requirements, and verification standards differing across countries, it’s increasingly difficult to stay compliant without slowing down the hiring process.
By embedding Veremark’s background checks into Helios, companies can:
- Initiate and track checks in-platform – no switching between systems
- Verify identity, employment history, education, and more across jurisdictions
- Access real-time updates and completed reports within the employee profile
- Deliver a simpler onboarding experience for candidates
The integration links results back to candidate profiles in Helios, creating a centralised, auditable record for every hire.
A natural extension for Helios customers
Helios already supports HR, payroll, and compliance workflows across 125+ countries. With the Veremark integration, companies can now complete pre-employment screening within the same system they use to manage the rest of the employee lifecycle.
“Our goal is to reduce the complexity of hiring across markets. By integrating Veremark into Helios, our customers can meet local compliance requirements and complete background checks more efficiently—without adding extra steps to their process.” says Rick Hammell, Founder and CEO of Helios
Improving the experience for teams and candidates
The integration reduces time to hire and improves coordination across teams by removing the need for external tools and manual follow-up. Candidates benefit from a simpler, more structured onboarding experience with fewer delays.
“This integration gives Helios users a more efficient way to manage compliance when hiring globally,” says Dan Callaghan, CEO and Co-Founder of Veremark. “It supports teams that need to make fast, informed decisions without compromising on due diligence.”
The partnership extends Veremark’s reach through Helios’ international customer base and strengthens both platforms’ ability to support compliant hiring at scale.”

FAQs
This depends on the industry and type of role you are recruiting for. To determine whether you need reference checks, identity checks, bankruptcy checks, civil background checks, credit checks for employment or any of the other background checks we offer, chat to our team of dedicated account managers.
Many industries have compliance-related employment check requirements. And even if your industry doesn’t, remember that your staff have access to assets and data that must be protected. When you employ a new staff member you need to be certain that they have the best interests of your business at heart. Carrying out comprehensive background checking helps mitigate risk and ensures a safer hiring decision.
Again, this depends on the type of checks you need. Simple identity checks can be carried out in as little as a few hours but a worldwide criminal background check for instance might take several weeks. A simple pre-employment check package takes around a week. Our account managers are specialists and can provide detailed information into which checks you need and how long they will take.
All Veremark checks are carried out online and digitally. This eliminates the need to collect, store and manage paper documents and information making the process faster, more efficient and ensures complete safety of candidate data and documents.
In a competitive marketplace, making the right hiring decisions is key to the success of your company. Employment background checks enables you to understand more about your candidates before making crucial decisions which can have either beneficial or catastrophic effects on your business.
Background checks not only provide useful insights into a candidate’s work history, skills and education, but they can also offer richer detail into someone’s personality and character traits. This gives you a huge advantage when considering who to hire. Background checking also ensures that candidates are legally allowed to carry out certain roles, failed criminal and credit checks could prevent them from working with vulnerable people or in a financial function.
