 Step
One Survey®
How can employers tell whether the people they hire have integrity,
are responsible, are drug-free, and are hardworking? The answer to
that question is to use the Step One Survey ® in
the job applicant screening process.
Many problems facing employers today result from a lack of employee
integrity. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has studied the reasons businesses
fail and has concluded that employee theft contributes to a third
of business failures. It can be said these employers have their businesses
stolen from them by their employees.

How the Step One Survey® Works
The Step One Survey ® is a new concept in honesty
evaluations that is a step ahead of the traditional integrity tests
on the market. Step One Survey ® not only measures
attitudes toward honesty and integrity, it also measures a job
applicant's attitudes about personal responsibility, drug use and
work ethic.
This enables
employers to gather information about job applicants' attitudes
toward stealing, acting responsibly in the workplace, using drugs
and giving
a full day's work for a full day's pay.
The developers of the Step One Survey ® employed
an innovative technique in developing this 21st century hiring tool.
While many other integrity tests were designed to be paper and pencil
lie detectors, the Step One Survey ® uses an
entirely different concept. Section I uses direct admission questions
to explore an applicant's attitudes and background, while Section
II compares the applicant's responses with those of two distinctly
different groups -- recently released ex-convicts and long-term retail
store employees with excellent work histories. The ex-convicts' crimes
were predominantly offenses dealing with theft and drug use.
Test items for the Step One Survey ® consist
of questions in which there were statistically significant differences
between the two groups. By administering the Step One Survey ® to
prospective employees, an employer can tell whether they think like
people who have been convicted of serious crimes or people who have
histories of integrity, responsibility, and drug-free, long-term
employment.
Benefits of Using the Step One Survey®
The Step One Survey ® can make the difference
between having a profitable, successful business and one that fails.
It is an economical tool to help protect the assets of any business.
