Wausau, Wisconsin – May 5, 2022: The Marathon County Sheriff’s Office recently joined the long list of more than 100 public safety agencies around the country that have implemented Miller Mendel’s pre-employment background investigation software, eSOPH.
The Sheriff’s Office expects to process 30 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 on-demand credit reporting feature, which allows users to retrieve an Employment Insights consumer credit report on the applicant from our partner Experian.
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. Those using the system also report a significant reduction in costly administrative resources such as paper, ink, postage, and filing space. By transitioning to eSOPH, the City of Bend Police Department joins the largest public safety background network in the nation.
