The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) has had an outstanding number of lawsuits occur within recent years due to technical violations against hiring managers and employers. This webinar will cover the key steps to take to ensure compliance, what to do to avoid technical violations and prevent litigation. John will also take us through the various local laws in effect for the state of NY. Background Decision is a SHRM Preferred Provider.
