A recent Reuters report highlights a sharp rise in background checks across the U.S. hospitality industry, with demand increasing by more than 30% in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period last year. Positions such as housekeeping, food service, and front desk staff are seeing the largest uptick in screening activity, largely in response to shifting immigration policies and growing regulatory scrutiny.
For wholesale providers of public-record information, keeping pace with industry trends like these is critical. As consumer reporting agencies respond to increased screening requests, it is essential that adequate resources are allocated to support timely and accurate fulfillment. Shifts in demand within high-turnover industries, such as hospitality, have ripple effects across the entire background screening ecosystem.
