Trigger background checks in HireRight directly from Rippling so pre-employment screening runs automatically as part of your onboarding workflow.
The Rippling–HireRight integration automates background check initiation as part of Rippling's onboarding sequence. When a new hire is added to Rippling and reaches the background check stage, a HireRight screening is triggered automatically — eliminating the manual step of switching to a separate platform to initiate checks.
HireRight results return to Rippling, allowing HR teams to see screening status alongside the rest of the onboarding checklist without toggling between systems. Conditional onboarding steps can be gated on a cleared background check before payroll enrollment proceeds.
HR teams frequently initiate HireRight checks manually after sending an offer, decoupled from the Rippling onboarding workflow. This creates delays when checks are forgotten or initiated late, and requires manual reconciliation to confirm cleared status before the employee's first payroll run. Automating the trigger from Rippling's onboarding sequence prevents both issues.
thePeopleStack configures the HireRight background check trigger within Rippling's onboarding workflow, including the check package selection based on role or department. We configure status callbacks so cleared results advance the onboarding sequence automatically.
HireRight operates in both the US and Canada. For thePeopleStack's Rippling clients with Canadian hires, HireRight checks are configured to comply with Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA) and provincial employment standards — which restrict certain check types available in the US.

Yes. Rippling's department or job title fields can map to different HireRight check packages, ensuring executive hires, finance roles, or positions with driving requirements receive the appropriate screening level.
Yes. Rippling's onboarding workflow can be configured to hold payroll enrollment, benefits election, or IT provisioning until a cleared HireRight result is received, preventing premature access before screening completes.
HireRight offers Canadian-compliant background check packages. thePeopleStack configures the Canadian check path separately from US packages, accounting for PIPEDA consent requirements and provincial restrictions on criminal record checks.
Standard configuration takes 2–3 hours including check package mapping, trigger configuration, and status callback testing.
