Employer Investigative consumer report

Published

I work for a company that recently requested all the employees to sign a concent for Consumer and Investigative Consumer Reports. If you sign this consent you are consenting for them to obtain information about me from corporation, employers, co-workers, references, credit reporting agencies, educational institutions,licensing bodies,courts,law enforcement agencies,governmental agencies or departments, and military sevices to provide information about my background, including but not limited to driving records, court records,credit report,academic records, professional license record, and employment related information. WOULD YOU SIGN THIS????

Incorporated in this concent is also the authorization for them to conduct an investigative consumer report obtained through interviews and may contain information about my character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and/or mode of living.

Would you sign this concent???? I have a funny feeling about signing way so much of myself/my finances/my personal info.

I wouldn't....

NO job is worth that kind of intrusion; unless it is some super-secret government agency.

I dont think any of us would like that kind intrusion into our private lives. But then again, arent there a lot of other areas where people are intruding and trying to tell people what we can do , when we can do it, and how? And when people disagree they have to get legistlation passed so we have to conform. They say majority rules, i guess if it makes the majority happy the rest of us who dont believe like the majority can just put up with it.

It just keeps getting more and more rediculous.

But, what it comes down to is if you want to work for this facility you will sign it and let them get any and all information they want.
