Employee Access to Background Checks. If you choose not to hire an applicant based upon something contained in her background check, you have to tell her this. She can then request a copy of the background check, and you can't charge her for this information. Some employers request credit checks on future employees. These individuals are entitled to one copy of their credit report, free of charge, each year.
How To Fail a Background Check. You were convicted of a crime relevant to the job's responsibilities. Employers have a legal obligation to keep their workplace safe, but they also can't discriminate based on an applicant's criminal record. In fact, they can only deny you the job if the offense is relevant to the job's core responsibilities.
