3. Importance of Background Checks Employers routinely request background checks for potential new hires and existing employees. They rely on background screens to make informed hiring decisions and to help mitigate risks: –Workplace violence –Employee theft –Negligent hiring lawsuits –Loss of business and/or customers –Lost time recruiting, hiring and training Poor hiring practices can lead to many kinds of risks which = Claims While pre-employment screening is only part of the hiring process, it does provide employers with an extra level of assurance against hiring employees who could cost them millions in lawsuits or thousands to replace them.

4. Compliance A key component of any background screening program is remaining compliant with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). –The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enforces the FCRA. –The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is tasked with interpreting and rulemaking for the FCRA as a result of the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010. –Consumer Reports: information prepared by a consumer reporting agency “bearing on a consumer’s credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living which is used or expected to be used or collected in whole or in part for the purpose of serving as a factor in establishing the consumer’s eligibility for—credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes; employment purposes” or other permitted purposes. –It is mandatory for employers using a 3rd party to conduct background checks on job applicants or existing employees to comply with the rules and regulations outlined in the FCRA.

5. What Policies/Procedures should be followed? The requirements include procedures that employers must follow before ordering a consumer report, and steps employers must follow if they intend on using any of the information, in whole or in part, from the consumer report to take adverse action. Organizations must understand their obligations under the FCRA and other federal, state, and local laws. Consumer Reporting Agencies (CRAs) that furnish consumer reports (i.e. background screening companies) must also comply with the FCRA. Be aware that 20 states have their own consumer reporting laws that are stricter and serve as a supplement to the federal FCRA. –AK, CA, CO, GA, HI, IL, KS, KY, MD, MA, MI, MN, MT, NV, NH, NM, NY, OK, TX, WA

6. Disclosure and Authorization: What You Should Know FCRA requirements –Disclosure Notice – prior to acquiring background report Blanket disclosures are permitted for the duration of employment. MUST be clear, conspicuous and in writing. Should be in a document consisting “solely of the disclosure”. May NOT be part of a printed employment application. Avoid extraneous information. Do not include “release of liability” or “hold harmless” statement. –Written Consent/Authorization May be a blanket authorization covering duration of employment. Consent must be obtained prior to the background check being requested. Separate page (paper or online) and not part of an application. Avoid extraneous information. Do not include “release of liability” or “hold harmless” statements.

7. Adverse Action: What You Should Know FCRA requirements –Pre-Adverse Action Notice Summary of Rights Copy of Report By giving notice in advance, the person has an opportunity to review and explain. –Post Adverse Action Summary of Rights Copy of report Name address and phone # of company that provided the report Statement that the provider of the report did not make the hiring decision –This two step process is for the Employment Purpose only. –Consumers also have the ability to request a copy of the report from the CRA that provided the employer the results

8. Additional Guidance Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) –An agency of the federal government, the EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting job and workplace discrimination. Created by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, employers must not deny employment or promotions based on an individual’s race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender, age, disability, genetic information, and/or retaliation for reporting, participating in, and/or opposing a discriminatory practice. –The EEOC also publishes guidance on the use of criminal records. EEOC issued new guidelines on April 25, 2012. –Employers need to consider the nature of the crime, time elapsed, and nature of the job when using criminal information for screening employees. –Employer’s policy or practice for excluding applicants based on criminal conviction must include an evaluation that such exclusion is “job related for the position in question and consistent with business necessity.”

9. What You Should Consider – Ban the Box Some state/local laws dictate when you can run the BC. “Ban the Box” – When are you allowed to ask if someone has a criminal conviction? –It is best practice to remove this question from your application. Some states have specific rules on when you are able to ask the question. –17 states have passed Ban the Box laws: CA, CO, CT, DE, GA, HI, IL, MD, MA, MN, NE, NJ, NM, OH, RI, VT, VA. –Additionally, over 100 cities and counties have passed some form of Ban the Box laws. EEOC guidelines state: –The policy rationale is that an employer is more likely to objectively assess the relevance of an applicant’s conviction if it becomes known when the employer is already knowledgeable about the applicant’s qualifications and experience. As best practice, and consistent with applicable laws, the Commission recommends that employers not ask about convictions on job applications and that, if and when they make such inquiries, the inquiries be limited to convictions for which exclusion would be job related for the position in question and consistent with business necessity.

10.
