Background checks can save employers thousands of dollars for minimal cost By John Parker
Several years ago, assigned as a detective sergeant, I received a call from a business owner regarding the theft of $130,000 from her company’s bank account. She suspected her bookkeeper of embezzling the money. During the course of the investigation, we discovered the bookkeeper was terminated by a previous employer for embezzling $60,000.
Treaty
A formal agreement between two states signed by official representatives of each state. A treaty may be "law-making" in that it is the declared intention of the signatories to make or amend their internal laws to give effect to the treaty. The Berne Convention is an example of such as treaty. Other treaties are just contracts between the signatories to conduct themselves in a certain way or to do a certain thing. These latter type of treaties are usually private to two or a limited number of states and may be binding only through the International Court of Justice.
