How many days do employers have to make a decision after obtaining background check reports?

30 days
60 days
90 days
120 days

The correct answer is: 60 days

Employers are required to make a decision regarding an applicant after obtaining background check reports within 60 days. This time frame is significant in order to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) requirements, which mandate that employers notify candidates if adverse action is taken based on the information in their background checks. This ensures that candidates have a fair opportunity to review the information that influenced the employer's decision and allows them to contest any inaccuracies in the report if necessary. By adhering to this 60-day guideline, employers can ensure they are engaging in fair hiring practices while also being compliant with legal standards.
