it depend if the background check agent got a tip then that just only then but i think theres also a secrecy when it comes to that matter.\n\n"Security is something needed in modern society. It separates the good from the bad and those who deserve something or not. Without it, people will fall victim to criminal elements and businesses will not flourish."

If an employer wants to check your workers comp background, they first need to have to offer you a tentative offer of employment.  The only reason they could then disqualify you is if they find that you LIED.  They can't just say no based on previous injury.

I recently worked for a company that background checks on prospective new employees for our clients.\n\nWe checked social security numbers (to confirm that they belonged to the applicant, and to see the applicant's previous addresses), credit history, driving records, criminal record history (sometimes in every county and state where the applicant had lived) and sex offender databases.\n\nIn addition we contacted high schools and colleges to confirm what type of degree was received, and we verified professional licenses. We also contacted previous employers and personal references to ask about work habits and character.\n\nSome background checks are very in-depth, and some barely scratch the surface. It just depends on how savvy the company is, and how much they are willing to pay.

I know in NY they can only verify that you did actually work for the company during the time you stated. No other information can be provided, however, if you provide the new company with your SS# to do a background check they will be able to see all the jobs you've held and the salary/wages you received. IMO, just don't lie, it will come back to haunt you.

No you do not have to mention the job,however if in the background check they run your social security statement for earnings they will find out that you worked there. They rarely run social security statement checks.

Most reputable employers will check out any references that you give. I wouldn't risk forging it, because eventually, it will be caught, and could ultimately end up with you being terminated.

depending on the job you are applying for, No. Some jobs might run a criminal background check anyway to see. Misdemeanors are minimal when it comes to job placement.

Depends on the employer and the job.  Most don't do thorough checks.  Some government agencies can view your juvenile records.  Otherwise, as in the above answer, those that check will consider your adult record.  In that case, the number of years would depend on how old you are.  If you have a minor offense in your background that worries you, you should probably disclose it rather than stress over the background check.  Some employers will fire you for lying on the application if you don't disclose something that will come up later.  Good luck.

Yes there are - your psychiatrist can give you the state specific details.

They will show up. As long as you have a prescription and can explain why they are in your system, you should be okay. Some places require a physicians note explaining your condition.\nIt is always good to be upfront with the person doing the testing and let them know what you are taking, it's good to take the prescription bottle with you.

You will get a background check when you have the job.  The misdemeanors are a very negative part of your background.  They are usually looking for major convictions.  If you were at a young age the time period may be considered

It is REALLY unlikely that an employer is going to check your credit history.  Even if they claim they have that right, or you give them that right when you fill out the application.\n\nThere are plenty of other ways to get screwed when trying to find a job, this one should probably be at the bottom of your list of things to worry about.\n\nGood luck.

I think it's fraud or intent to defraud.\n\nDefinitely bring a lawyer into the picture.  And whoever did your background check on these employees should be held accountable as well.  \n\nIf they had any contact with patients, there's definitely some type of law that covers that.  \n\nAs for the last guy, cut your losses and pay his last paycheck and be done with him.  I doubt he'll use you as a job reference.

when I go for a drug test for employment, I list the prescriptions I am on.  Narcotics do show up in a test, if they are looking for them.

Yes you should worry! First of all, it WILL show up that way on a background check. Second of all you could lose the job for "nondisclosure" if you are hired for it. There is no way to clear the situation at all.

A used to work for a background screening company, and I know for a fact that some companies don't even want to know about criminal records for an applicant if it is less than a felony.\n\nMost companies are going to have you fill out an application, and there will be a spot on the form where they ask you about that sort of thing. But read the fine print, it may ask you to omit certain things (usually traffic-related stuff, sometimes drug misdemeanors over 2 years old, etc).\n\nUnless they have asked you about it or it is implied that you should've already brought it to their attention, I wouldn't bring it up. That's a judgement call, obviously, but you don't want to sound like you think it might disqualify you from consideration. (Be confident!)

It will be on your record for the rest of your life.  However, most employers do not ask you to report it, if it's older than 7 years.  Most background checking companies will ignore a misdemeanor unless the employer specifically requests that information (they are more concerned with Felonies).
