Jenny Reid

Pragmatic business woman, Jenny Reid, the former Managing Director of Griffiths Reid has taken iFacts, an employee screening company and turned it into a completely new organisation “The Orange” that offers comprehensive employee solutions.  Jenny was the first female President of the Security Association of South Africa (SASA) and she has also been invited to speak at conferences including presenting a paper on Employee Screening at the ASIS conference in Singapore. She firmly believes companies need to do more to ensure high levels of integrity, loyalty and productivity within the workforce.

“If an employee’s wellbeing and health are not in order, this can have a radical effect on their work ethic and output” says Jenny Reid, who started ‘The Orange’, specifically to address the growing concerns of the wellbeing of company employees.  “Stress, poor diet and personal issues combined can push a person into doing crime through shear desperation” she says. “Syndicates prey on weaknesses and will target a vulnerable employee to work for ‘better rewards’.  Furthermore, unhappy employees may well turn to fraud as a means of ‘bettering their circumstances’.”

Who do you have working for you? - Can you trust them?

Knowing whom you have working for you is critical in today's erratic environment. We find ourselves in a vulnerable situation where companies are faced with the threat of fraud, theft and industrial espionage daily.

Personnel screening services cover details such as confirming an applicant’s curriculum vitae and background to using graphology to indicate and reflect upon the individuals character, personality, psychological and physiological status. This gives you peace of mind in your choice of applicants and helps to reduce long term problems associated with having the wrong person in a position.

To protect yourself from the dangers of unwittingly employing the wrong person, careful consideration should be given to using specialised services. Go to www.ifacts.co.za for more information.
