Pre-employment screening practices to prevent the recruitment of psychopaths (antisocial personalities) into South African organisations

A snapshot of the current state of the business world is given, followed by the proposition that people are the root cause of the problems therein. Mutual influence between individual and organisation is depicted. The corporate psychopath is identified as being especially problematic. Therefore measures to prevent the recruitment of psychopaths into organisations will be studied. The objectives of this research report are:
• To establish whether South African organisations are aware of the problems caused by psychopaths.
• To establish what screening processes are in place in South African organisations to identify psychopaths.
• To suggest additional measures that would prevent the recruitment of psychopaths into organisations.
