The Interplay Between the FCRA, The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Ban the Box in the Hiring Process 1.5 Credits
Select your learning mode
The Federal Consumer Protection Bureau issued a final rule summarizing consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act in 2019 when conducting background checks on potential new employees. Additionally, many states and municipalities have passed “Ban the Box” legislation making it illegal to ask about criminal convictions on an employment application.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has added to the confusion by publishing its guidelines on the use of background checks for hiring purposes. Wading through all the pre-hiring regulations has become burdensome for employers to understand their compliance requirements.
Even more perplexing for employers are the reporting requirements for adverse actions which require you to notify the applicant of a disqualifying item on the results of the background check and give them time to refute the results.
Couple all of this with protecting employers from negligent hiring and retention lawsuits and you know why many human resources professionals are pulling their hair out trying to be complying while making good hiring decisions.
This CPE webinar by Bob McKenzie will review the intricacies of dealing with all of the above to recruit and retain the best employees possible.
