Well-Blue Screening
Well-Blue screening refers to the process of evaluating and assessing individuals for employment in traditional manual or labor-intensive jobs, often involving physical work or skilled trades. These jobs are typically associated with industries such as construction, manufacturing, transportation, and maintenance. Well-Blue workers are often involved in tasks that require hands-on skills, technical expertise, and practical knowledge.
The screening process for Well-Blue jobs may include various components to ensure that candidates are suitable for the specific demands of the job.
Some common elements of Well-Blue screening include:
Skills Assessment: Evaluation of the candidate’s technical skills and proficiency in the specific tasks associated with the job. This may involve practical tests or demonstrations to assess hands-on abilities.
Physical Fitness: Given the nature of many Well-Blue jobs, physical fitness may be an important consideration. Candidates may be required to undergo medical examinations or physical assessments to ensure they can meet the physical demands of the job.
Safety Training and Compliance: Well-Blue jobs often involve working in environments with potential safety hazards. Screening may include verification of the candidate’s knowledge of safety procedures and compliance with safety regulations.
Work History and Experience: Assessment of the candidate’s work history and relevant experience in similar Well-Blue roles. Previous experience in a similar setting can be crucial for certain positions.
Certifications and Licenses: Verification of any required certifications, licenses, or qualifications necessary for the job. This may include licenses for operating machinery, safety certifications, or trade-specific credentials.
Background Checks: Similar to Well-Blue jobs, background checks may be conducted to ensure that candidates have a clean criminal record and meet the ethical standards required for the position.
Drug Testing: Some employers in Well-Blue industries may conduct drug tests as part of the screening process, especially if the job involves operating heavy machinery or has strict safety requirements.
References: Checking references from previous employers or colleagues to gain insights into the candidate’s work ethic, reliability, and performance in previous roles.
Effective Well-Blue screening helps employers identify candidates who not only possess the necessary technical skills but also demonstrate a commitment to safety, reliability, and a strong work ethic. It plays a crucial role in ensuring a safe and productive workforce in industries where physical tasks and technical skills are paramount.
Blue Collar Screening
The rise of the on-demand economy (ODE) has highlighted the need for a greater number of casual, migrant, part-time and temporary workers by Indian employers. Uber is a good example of deploying a flexible workforce, while health and beauty services, food delivery services, home services are just a few of the elements of this booming sector.
Currently, they are considered sub-contractors in most countries and do not enjoy the same work-related benefits as people considered to be employees.

The basic identity check performs rapid identity verifications by validating Government-issued identity documents submitted by the individual.
A court criminal record search may be added to the basic identity check to filter out candidates who could pose a risk to their fellow workers or to members of the public, such as customers.
Benefits too for the candidates who have been screened
Once we have screened a candidate at the request of an employer, we retain the report on file in-office. In this way, the employee can refer to Krib for confirmation when next applying for an ODE job.
