Job relevant policies applied with confidence
Policy Nexus evaluates background checks against your screening policies — flagging only what's relevant, so teams review consistently at speed.
Job relevance
Same record.
Different role.
Different outcome.
Not every record is relevant to every job. Policy Nexus maps job exposure to specific conduct categories — highlighting what deserves attention and filtering out what doesn't.
Motor vehicle-related offenses are directly relevant to commercial driving roles.
Recent theft-related charges may pose a relevant risk to positions involving financial assets
Low-risk office roles have minimal overlap with these records.

Audit-Ready
Start with templates built from research.
Kizuna provides dozens of policy templates based on negligent hiring research and common regulatory requirements – so you don't need to start from scratch. Customize them in the next step, or skip templates entirely and create your own.
Fine-tune rules for every category.
Define which records should trigger a review. Then, customize the scope down to the most granular level: lookback period, charge severity, disposition, charge count and more.
Review what matters
Kizuna uses your policies to auto-evaluate background checks. Policy Nexus clears records that meet your criteria and flags ones that don't so you can make fast, confident decisions.
Benefits
Where adjudication gets easier
Replace your outdated matrix with a rules engine that reflects how you actually hire – with configurable rules for job relevance, jurisdiction, insurance requirements, and more.
Instant job relevance
A structured review signal tied to the role's exposures, so reviewers can focus on what actually matters.
No more guesswork
Each review signal is traceable to its source, so reviewers know which standard applied.
Faster throughput, fewer escalations
Less back-and-forth, fewer edge-case debates, and documentation you don't have to recreate later.
Defensible decisions
Clear rationale, rule trace, and policy versioning — so 'why' always has a structured answer.
Impact
Same report. More opportunities.
By converting record data into structured, policy-ready signals, it becomes easier to see where risk is clear, where it's manageable, and where a candidate may still be viable.
Reviewable edge cases
Edge cases become reviewable instead of automatically excluded.
Re-evaluate without rerunning
Role changes can be evaluated without rerunning the report.
Client overlay flexibility
Client overlays can open placements that would otherwise stall.
Retroactive policy updates
Policy updates apply across past and future reviews.
Same report. Clearer decisions.
Background check teams finally have the tools they need to make fast and smart decisions without compromising safety or compliance.
