Bill overview
This bill, the Job Applicant Credit Privacy Act, prohibits employers in Michigan from asking about a job applicant’s credit history or using that information to make hiring decisions, with limited exceptions. It also protects job applicants from retaliation if they report a violation of the law and allows individuals harmed by violations to seek legal remedies. The act aims to ensure fair employment practices by limiting access to an applicant’s financial information.
