Bel Air, Maryland – June 29, 2022: The Harford County Sheriff’s Office recently joined several other Maryland public safety agencies who have transitioned their pre-employment background investigations process to eSOPH.

The department expects to process at least 300 applicants per year using eSOPH. In addition to taking advantage of eSOPH’s industry-leading standard functionality and one-click access to the National Decertification Index, the department will utilize eSOPH’s optional integrated Smart Fax feature. This feature gives background investigators the ability to send their agency’s configured packets to other agencies for record checks with a simple click of a button.

eSOPH, which stands for electronic Statement of Personal History, has been used by city, county, and state police agencies across the nation to conduct over 100,000 pre-employment public safety background investigations. Agencies using eSOPH report saving up to 50 percent of their time per background investigation. By implementing eSOPH, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office is now connected to all other agencies on the network in Maryland and throughout the nation.
