Ensuring your background is compliant with The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is something we're more than prepared to assist you with from start to finish.

Background check compliance is one of the most important issues for employers when they are running background checks on their employees. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is the most important federal mandate when it comes to pre-employment background check compliance.

There are also a number of states which have laws that differ and override the FCRA. A good example would be California, which has much more stringent laws about what can be reported verses what cannot be reported to prospective employers.

Backgrounds Online is happy to assist employers to make sure they are following the correct steps for background check compliance.
