APPLICANT ASSESSMENT
All system development and validation procedures are based upon, and subscribe to, the guidelines and procedures of the American psychological Association and the Federal Uniform Guidelines of Employee Selection Procedures. All survey items included in Orion assessment instruments are developed reviewed, and validated to meet the equal employment opportunity concerns of the Federal uniform Guidelines, as well as legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, privacy and fair employment legislation, and related requirements.
To further demonstrate EEOC compliance and absence of adverse impact, we encourage all users of Orion Systems Applicant Assessments to conduct periodic age, gender and race analysis. All Orion System assessments are designed to allow organizations to collect the information necessary to conduct studies of this type.
It has been shown repeatedly that using a demonstrably valid assessment provides greater protection from illegal hiring practice claims than you otherwise would enjoy. Since introduction in the early 1980's millions of applicants have taken Orion assessments. In that time, not one Orion client has ever suffered an adverse court judgment or administrative ruling related to Orion assessments.
Orion assessments are non-threatening and informative. And the results are valid, reliable, and accurate.
