Pre-adverse action checklist

A plain-English walkthrough of the notice, waiting period, and documentation flow employers should follow before adverse action.

Use this page as a planning brief. The safest workflow is usually to separate the question of when you may run the screen from the question of what you do if the report comes back with information that matters. That is why ScreenSure keeps federal FCRA steps visible in every relevant result and keeps local-law cautions close to the action recommendation.

What to do with this guidance

Update your internal hiring checklist, train the recruiter who orders reports, and document who reviews adverse-action decisions. Multi-state teams should pair this page with the state guide relevant to the candidate’s work location.
