A background check cannot go stale.

Criminal, civil, and labor background checks, PEP, sanctions, and adverse media for sensitive roles, with periodic revalidation for the full duration of employment.

The problem

Team integrity is a snapshot, not a film.

Three pain points that travel together in hires for finance, operations, compliance, and IT.

Stale snapshot

The check is only valid on the day of hire.

An employee cleared 2 years ago may have faced legal proceedings, appeared on a restricted list, or become a PEP since then. Without revalidation, the company carries a risk that has already changed levels and no one noticed.

1x
manual verification happens only at onboarding, never again
One-size rule

Intern and CFO go through the same shallow screen.

Roles with access to cash, data, and decisions require different depth. Without a role-based matrix, the check is either too shallow for the critical role, or too deep and costly for everyone.

LGPD

Personal data handled without legal basis becomes a liability.

Criminal records are not listed as sensitive data under Art. 5 of the LGPD, but carry high discriminatory potential. Collecting, storing, and deciding on them without purpose, legal basis, and an auditable trail exposes the company to ANPD sanctions and candidate lawsuits.

AI-generated summary

Recommendation: Approve. Only signal is a 2019 labor claim (final judgment, settlement approved), below the policy threshold for this role. Personal data handling with registered legal basis. Automatic revalidation scheduled for 12 months.

1
Full CNJ across all three spheres

Criminal, civil, and labor, all courts, with the source for each finding. Not just a surface-level background certificate.

2
Matrix calibrated by role criticality

Depth and weights shift for finance, operations, compliance, and IT. The intern does not pay the cost of the CFO.

3
Continuous revalidation with LGPD trail

The engine revalidates automatically at policy cadence. Every personal data handling is logged with legal basis and purpose.

Regulatory

What the law already requires from you.

Background checking a sensitive role touches personal data and labor relations. Four instruments define the how.

LGPD
Law 13.709 · 2018

Handling records with legal basis

Criminal records are not listed as sensitive data under Art. 5 of the LGPD, but carry high discriminatory potential: collection and decisions require purpose, legal basis, and an auditable trail. VAAS logs every handling, the proof ANPD demands.

CLT
TST · case law

Limits of background checks in employment

The TST restricts requirements that constitute discrimination in access to employment. The role-based matrix ensures the check is proportional and justifiable.

CVM 21
Resolution · 2021

Authorization for portfolio managers

Securities portfolio managers must prove good standing and absence of disqualifying convictions. The report documents the integrity screen for these roles.

Policy
Internal · investors
