Online screening for:
Retail, Staffing & Franchise
Keep your stores & offices free of toxic behavior.
Retail is thriving, largely driven by the human connections that consumers
crave—but it’s also what’s putting brands under more risk than ever before. Whether it is a key holder, store associate or temporary staff, each of your team members is responsible for building your brand. How will retail ensure that each team member, in a decentralized environment, represents their mission and values?
Take control of your biggest risks
Customer Facing Employees
Thanks to social media, every customer has the potential to set off a PR disaster—and that means a single employee’s actions can have a lasting impact on your reputation. Whether it’s a regional manager or a seasonal temp, all it takes is one reckless employee to create an outsized amount of backlash against your brand.
Hiring Employees at Scale
Hiring at scale makes it even harder to ensure that employees align with your company values. Having thousands of employees globally means that it’s harder than ever for retailers to identify risky behaviors before they slip through the cracks of the hiring process. Without an added layer of protection, the risk for brand damage remains high.
Threatening or Violent Behavior
Big name retailers always have a target on their backs, and while public backlash comes from the outside, the biggest vulnerabilities often start from within. Whistleblowers, scammers, and violent insiders can be hard to catch. If you let them into your organization, they can create negative impacts for years to come.

Next Generation Online Screening for Retail, Staffing & Franchise
Fama is an AI-based software solution that identifies problematic behavior among potential hires and current employees by analyzing publicly available online information. Historically, there hasn’t been a viable solution for companies that want to proactively prevent hostile work environments and protect brand equity.
Our solutions highlight behaviors that pose a risk to retail and staffing organizations, and surface threats that are often hidden in reams of publicly available data. Search firms and retail brands count on Fama to help them intervene on problematic behaviors before they become a part of their culture, or worse yet, a news headline or incident.
