Continuous monitoring for a safe, compliant workplace

Pre-employment background checks are essential — but without ongoing monitoring, you will likely be unaware of criminal charges, licence issues, or sanctions that emerge after hire. StodacomDesktop® keeps you in the know.

The Value of Continuous Monitoring

Beyond the point-in-time check

Real-time monitoring goes beyond a one-time background check — it informs you of recent behaviours that might put your organisation at risk.

Brand & Reputation Protection

Identify emerging employee risk before it becomes a public or reputational issue for your organisation.

Employee & Customer Safety

Ensure the safety of your people and the customers they interact with by catching risk that emerges post-hire.

Government Programme Eligibility

Maintain assurance that your workforce remains eligible for relevant government contracts and regulated programmes.

Financial & Legal Risk Mitigation

Reduce your exposure to liability by demonstrating a consistent, documented monitoring programme to regulators and insurers.

Continuous Monitoring Services

Four pillars of post-hire protection

Employment risks are ongoing. These services keep you informed and compliant — automatically.

Driver Safety

Driver Monitoring

Employment risks are ongoing — some facts about your employees change after hire, and those changes matter. Our driver monitoring sends you automatic alerts for DUIs, suspensions, revocations, and violations so you can take the actions necessary to keep safe drivers on the road.

For example: when one of your drivers is convicted of a DUI — even if they had a spotless record on their hire date — you receive the new information immediately so you can act.

Professional & Personal Sanctions

In many industries — particularly healthcare, finance, and government — your compliance obligations don't end at pre-employment screening. To stay fully compliant and ensure your employees remain eligible, you are required to monitor for sanction violations on an ongoing basis.

StodacomDesktop® monitors against sanctions lists, professional regulatory bodies, and government debarment registers across all 54 African countries.

Criminal Record Monitoring

A pre-employment criminal history check identifies red flags in a candidate's past. But what about current criminal activity? StodacomDesktop® connects live to court and arrest resources across Africa, providing up-to-date data based on the criteria you specify — so you can keep your workforce safe and compliant.

You define the thresholds. We send the alerts. You stay in control.

If something is happening right now in your workforce, you'll have the information to act on it.

Monitoring Services FAQs

Common questions answered

Continuous monitoring means keeping track of changes in your employees' records after they are hired — such as new criminal charges, licence suspensions, or professional sanctions — so your organisation can address problems quickly and stay compliant.

A background check is a one-time snapshot of a candidate's history at the point of hiring. Continuous monitoring is an ongoing programme that alerts you when something changes after the hire date — giving you real-time visibility rather than a fixed-point view.

Alerts are triggered by events you configure — such as a new criminal charge, a DUI conviction, a licence suspension or revocation, a professional sanction, or the emergence of adverse media or social content. You decide what matters for your organisation.

Any industry where employees hold professional licences, drive company vehicles, work with vulnerable populations, or operate in regulated environments benefits significantly — including healthcare, finance, logistics, security, education, and government contracting.

StodacomDesktop® connects to live court, licence, and data sources across Africa. Alerts are generated as quickly as our data partners update their records — typically within 24–48 hours of an event being recorded.

Our social media monitoring service analyses publicly available content across major platforms, scanning for predefined risk categories including bullying, hate speech, toxic language, and threats of violence — without accessing private or protected accounts.

Yes. In line with data protection laws across Africa and internationally, employees must be informed of and consent to ongoing monitoring as part of their employment agreement. We provide guidance and template documentation to make this straightforward.

Absolutely. Many government contracts and licensing frameworks require ongoing verification that employees and contractors remain sanction-free and in good standing. Our monitoring services are specifically designed to satisfy these requirements across African jurisdictions.

Disclaimer: Stodacom Africa monitoring services are conducted in accordance with applicable data protection and employment laws in each jurisdiction. Employer obligations regarding employee consent and notice requirements vary by country. We recommend consulting with local legal counsel before implementing any monitoring programme.
