Your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is a federal law that protects job applicants from the harmful effects of inaccurate or mishandled background checks. It outlines strict rules that employers must follow before and after reviewing your background report.
Under the FCRA, employers must:
- Notify you before running a background check
- Obtain your written authorization
- Provide written notice before taking any adverse action — such as denying employment, revoking a job offer, reassigning a position, or terminating employment — based on information in your background report.
If an employer fails to follow these requirements, it may violate your rights. FCRA violations can cause lost income, emotional distress, and lasting damage to your reputation. Fortunately, the law gives you the right to take legal action and seek compensation for any harm caused by an improper or inaccurate background check.
