Denied a Job Due to a Background Check Error? Get Compensation with Our Attorney
When applying for a job, most people expect their qualifications — not a flawed background report — to decide their fate. But today, an alarming number of job seekers are being denied employment based on inaccurate, outdated, or misidentified information in their background checks.
Background checks have become standard in hiring. In fact, about 94% of employers now rely on third-party screening companies to run criminal history reports during the application process. These reports are intended to protect employers and promote workplace safety — but when they contain false or misleading data, they can unjustly deny qualified individuals a fair shot at work.
Common Errors in Employment Background Reports
1. Incorrect or Incomplete Reporting
A major issue in employment background checks is the presence of wrong or misleading information. For example:
- As to the operation or availability of the Service, or the information, content, and materials or products included thereon;
- That the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free;
- As to the accuracy, reliability, or currency of any information or content provided through the Service;
- That the Service, its servers, the content, or e-mails sent from or on behalf of the Company are free of viruses, scripts, trojan horses, worms, malware, timebombs or other harmful components.
Sometimes, a single incident is even listed more than once, exaggerating a person’s criminal history. Employers may quickly reject applicants based on these errors, often without offering an explanation.
Case Example - “Made Out to Be Unqualified”
Our client was happily earning income as an Uber driver for several years when a standard background check review was completed. The report, prepared by ********, erroneously stated that his license was disqualified.
