# Employee Screening

## Skill type

Operation skill.

## Purpose

Support policy-limited AML/integrity screening for candidates, staff or role-sensitive personnel while preserving privacy, proportionality and human review boundaries.

## Practical control layer

This operation uses `skills/core/TCAML-S010-verification-evidence-control` to apply common analyst-grade controls: declared-data inventory, source plan, source check records, evidence capture, discrepancy register, risk trigger mapping, audit trail and human handover.

## Scope

- Candidates, employees, contractors and role-sensitive staff.
- Policy-limited screening, conflict/integrity checks and HR/compliance routing.
- Privacy-sensitive evidence handling and minimal necessary output.

## Skills commonly used
