Managed Labor Solutions FCRA $225K class action settlement

Managed Labor Solutions has agreed to pay $225,000 to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) by failing to provide pre-adverse action notice when using a consumer report to take adverse employment action against applicants and employees.

If Managed Labor Solutions procured a consumer report for employment purposes that was used to take adverse employment action against you between June 1, 2016, and Jan. 20, 2022, you may be entitled to a cash payment from the FCRA settlement.

Congress enacted the FCRA half a century ago to protect consumer privacy and to restrict consumer reporting agencies from recklessly disclosing personal and sensitive information, the Managed Labor Solutions class action lawsuit explains.

Managed Labor Solutions, which provides outsourced labor to companies, allegedly violated FCRA by denying employment opportunities to the plaintiff based on the results of his consumer report without first providing him notice and a copy of the report. As a result, the plaintiff says he never saw what was included on his credit report and could not determine whether the information was accurate. 

The class action lawsuit alleges Managed Labor Solutions violated the FCRA by failing to provide him with pre-adverse action notice that included a copy of his consumer report and written summary of his FCRA rights at least five days before rejecting him from an employment opportunity.

Managed Labor Solutions denies any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the FCRA class action lawsuit to avoid the risk and expense of ongoing litigation.

The proposed Managed Labor Solutions settlement affects a class of about 300 U.S. residents.

It is estimated each eligible claimant will receive a $400 check, although the actual amount each claimant receives may depend on the total number of valid claims filed.

The deadline to object to the Managed Labor Solutions class action settlement passed July 31, 2022.

Class members who wish to exclude themselves must do so by Aug. 30, 2022. 

The final fairness hearing will be held Sept. 7, 2022.

The deadline to file a claim for the Managed Labor Solutions FCRA class action lawsuit settlement is Aug. 30, 2022.
