ARTICLE OF THE WEEK:

Proposed
California legislation would prohibit employers from requiring applicant
employees to provide their social media usernames and passwords to allow an
employment background check.
Employers
and Background Check companies have apparently gotten aggressive in attempting
to bypass an applicant's social media privacy settings. Illinois,
Maryland and California have proposed legislation that would stop this
practice. Laws may be drafted for vote in Connecticut, New Jersey, and
the U.S. Senate.
