This session covers the current hot topics in background screening. Compliance is both a concern and a challenge with rapidly changing laws, new regulators and new concerns generated by new tools. We will provide an inside view of the changing compliance issues for those involved in background screening including the recently released Equal Employment Opportunity Commission guidance and stance regarding the use of credit and criminal history research for employment decisions. History and background for that guidance will be discussed to provide both context, advice and warnings to reduce the likelihood of becoming a target of the EEOC.
We will also discuss social media research and how it is becoming more and more common as a pre employment screening tool. The problem for many employers is that this sort of research is so new, policies and guidance about how to properly conduct the research is hard to find. As a result, companies are in danger of running afoul of existing law, new laws being passed, or becoming the subject of new case law. Join us to discuss how privacy concerns affect background screening. We will provide some very simple suggestions for HR professionals to stay out of trouble.
