Credit Report Usage in Connecticut
by Megan Consolo on July 27th, 2011
Effective October 1, 2011, Connecticut becomes the sixth state to enact prohibitions on an employer’s use of credit in employment. The Act which was signed by Connecticut Governor Malloy, prohibits many employers from requiring employees and prospective employees to consent to a credit report as a condition of employment.
Exceptions to this Act include financial institutions and positions where the credit history is “substantially related to the employee’s current or potential job.”
