From the Editor's Desk

In this edition of our monthly e-newsletter, a group in New York is pushing Mayor Bill de Blasio to support a bill that would ban the use of credit reports in making an employment decision.

A U.S. District Court in Pennsylvania has ruled in favor of an employer that withdrew their conditional job offer to an applicant once they found out the applicant wasn’t being forthcoming about previous criminal convictions.

Finally, our tip of the month focuses on the question, "what should I look for in a 3rd party vendor?"

Please forward our e-newsletter to friends and colleagues who may benefit from our published information.

Sincerely,

e-sig
Cody Farzad,
Vice President/Editor
