Metro State Background Checks

Metro State is proposing to conduct background checks on its employees.  The college's background check discloure form asks prospective and current employees to waive certain rights and permit investigations that many regard as an invasion of their privacy.  Some of the information, to be gleaned from an employee's neighbors, friends and colleagues, will be highly subjective. It's highly questionable that much of the information the college's consultant, HireRight, seeks to find, would serve to protect the college, but it would certainly give HireRight a considerable database on each employee.  There seem to be few limits on what HireRight can do with the information. 

HireRight is rated as a "CCC" company by the California Better Business Bureau.

See the MSFF's response to the background checks as well as the letter from our attorney, Joe Goldhammer, to college counsel, Lee Combs. Click on the blue link above to access the information.  You may acccess the letter from our attorney  from the link that follows the letter from the MSFF to the faculty.
