Compliance is a Very Serious Matter

Compliance is a very serious subject matter for both large and small companies that run employment and property management background checks.  Publix Supermarkets just made a $6.8 million dollar settlement. The lawsuit says Publix’s application process included an authorization for a background check, but says it “blatantly violated” an FCRA rule that requires businesses obtaining a consumer report for employment purposes to notify the applicant “in a document consisting solely of the disclosure.” http://www.theledger.com/article/20141028/NEWS/141029338/1410?Title=Publix-to-Pay-6-8-Million-in-Class-Action-Settlement
