About this Event

Date: Jan 20,2025

Time: 1PM -2:30 PM ET

Duration: 90 Mins

Description

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 their own guideline 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 requires 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 in compliance while making good hiring decisions.

This webinar will review the intricacies of dealing with all of the above to recruit and retain the best employees possible.

  • A thorough review of the Fair Credit Reporting Act in the hiring process
  • When to send Adverse Action Notices
