FCRA Compliance
Employment background screening is a consumer reporting service regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. FactFinders operates as a Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA) and requires all employer clients to comply with applicable FCRA obligations.
Permissible Purpose
Employers must certify a permissible purpose before receiving any consumer report. Employment screening is authorized under 15 U.S.C. § 1681b.
Applicant Disclosure & Authorization
Before initiating a background check, employers must provide a standalone written disclosure and obtain the applicant's written authorization.
Pre-Adverse Action
Before taking adverse action based on a consumer report, employers must provide the applicant with a copy of the report and a Summary of Consumer Rights.
Adverse Action Notice
After adverse action is taken, employers must provide a final adverse action notice identifying the CRA and informing the consumer of their dispute rights.
