Case Study: Pleo achieves faster, compliant background checks with Zinc Work

Pleo saves 230+ hours and speeds background checks with Zinc Work

Pleo, a fast-moving fintech company, faced significant challenges with its manual and non-compliant background checking process. Operating globally, their People Operations team struggled with varying local regulations, a lack of automation, and no single source of truth for checks, which was time-consuming and created compliance risks. Their previous provider offered no dedicated support, leaving the team to manage a frustrating and inefficient process on their own.

By implementing Zinc Work's background check software, Pleo automated its entire pre-employment screening flow. The solution integrated seamlessly with Greenhouse and Slack, eliminating manual data entry and providing clear, compliant check packages for every role. As a result, Pleo saved 230+ hours, achieved an average turnaround time of just 9 days, and gained full confidence in a process that is now both automated and compliant. Zinc Work's platform freed the team to focus on strategic initiatives instead of administrative fires.
