Employment Application

The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is designed to promote accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of every "consumer reporting agency" (CRA). Most CRAs are credit bureaus that gather and sell information about you (e.g. if you pay your bills on time or have filed bankruptcy), to creditors, employers, landlords, and other businesses. The FCRA gives you specific rights, as outlined below. You may have additional rights under state law. You may contact a state or local consumer protection agency or a state attorney general to learn those rights.

• You must be told if information in your file has been used against you.
• You can find out what is in your file.
• You can dispute inaccurate information with the CRA. Inaccurate information must be corrected or deleted.
• You can dispute inaccurate items with the source of the information.
• Outdated information may not be reported.
• Your consent is required for reports that are provided to employers, or reports that contain medical information.
• You may choose to exclude your name from CRA lists for unsolicited credit and insurance offers.
• You may choose to exclude your name from CRA lists for unsolicited credit and insurance offers.
