It’s to be bonded. No big deal.
I’d like to give HR a stool sample.
Also checking for hernias
Perhaps they are looking to eliminate anyone convicted of something SINCE THE TIME they were first bonded.
Not only did I have to give a wee wee sample along with finger prints, I had to take an aptitude test to get in here. That was when the company was run well before being taken over by alien face huggers
I’ve seen prisons with less rules, restrictions, apathy and a-s*#les. I did my ten years in Oriskany; happy every day to be out of there. The incompetence, arrogance and id--ts in management drove out people.
Is this any more ridiculous than those stupid trackers they were wanting everybody to carry around during Covid to track your movements.
That had to be violating some sort of law or regulation you would think…
30 years ago when I started with the then Bank of New York, I was both fingerprinted and was given a dr-g test by the usual p'ng into a cup I have no idea what they do now but that's what they did then.
The US is wild. Dublin, yes background checks are done but fingerprinting? Crazy.
I had prints done when I started many years ago, then again maybe 10 or so years ago (something about needing new ones that went through some central corporate security system), and then again when I started at Pershing (due to FINRA rules). It doesn’t hurt and they never even clued in on my three alternate identities or my past as an owner of an illegal lemonade stand when I was 8.

I’ve been here for more than 2 decades and “back in my day”, they fingerprinted us and it went through an FBI background check since we were handling payment transactions. The company then relaxed requirements to save money and because they began offshoring work, so they eliminated fingerprinting requirements and FBI background checks. Now, they only require a third party background verification.
It either came back to bite them or they are using this as another tactic to eliminate employees without severance.
I would want to know what happened to my fingerprint data if they claim that those are lost and I would want explicit information about what data they are verifying in the new background check and if you have any right of refusal if you’ve already been in that job for a certain period of time.
Hasn't BNY always required finger prints/background checks?
You can thank HR - who wants to be in charge of Fingerprints, but doesn't want to be accountable!

Isn’t it time for your adult diaper change and stewed prunes with metamucil?
You were a below avg employee and were likely fired for being excess sludge. Your posts are a commentary on horrid genetic deficiencies more than anything else
Us BOOMERS had to have finger prints and background check 100 years ago... what's the problem?
Soon we’ll be taking the elevator down to the Severed Floor.
Land of the free and home of the brave indeed.
People received an email today to have their fingerprints completed because the initial ones completed during on boarding where some how lost. They have to be completed by April 11th. It also stated it will be used for background checks. In reading the email makes you worried as to maybe we have all been working with people who haven’t passed a background check.
FINRA requirement for broker dealer employees.
I'm going to need more context.
