FCRA/ICRAA Fair Credit Reporting Act/ Investigative Consumer Reporting Agency Act) Packet
Just how valuable is your most valuable asset – your workforce? Background checks help determine fitness and character for new hires, promotions and when circumstances may dictate investigating a matter or employee.
Employers can rely on reports from a variety of sources, including governmental agencies, schools and credit agencies. These include credit reports, criminal history reports, motor vehicle reports, education verification, professional licensing and sanctions reports, and similar information and reports (“background screens”) from third-party companies. Anytime you obtain and use these reports, you must follow procedures specified by the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and, increasingly, “fair chance” and other laws imposed by states and municipalities. Many sample forms on the market today simply don’t properly account for these legal complexities.
