NOTICE OF USE OF CONSUMER REPORTS
Ohio law requires The Blick Center to fingerprint employees for the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation to perform a criminal records check. If you have lived outside of the State of Ohio, you must also obtain an FBI background check. In addition to the criminal records check, The Blick Center may obtain consumer reports from a Consumer Reporting Agency as part of its procedure for processing your employment application and/or for other employment processes, including promotion, transfer, or retention during your employment. The Blick Center typically only requests consumer reports which provide information regarding criminal records and motor vehicle records; however, The Blick Center may also request a consumer report that includes information regarding your credit, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and mode of living.
The Blick Center will not obtain information from a Consumer Reporting Agency without your written permission.
