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.
Employers Must Ask Before Doing a Background Check. Before doing a background or credit check, employers must request and receive written permission from you to do the check. If anything in the reports leads to the company deciding against hiring you, they are required to inform you and give you a copy of the report.
