    Question Background Check Laws in Georgia and Florida

    My question involves a background check in the State of: Georgia and Florida

    Can anyone point me to where I can view the state laws for background investigations for employment in the state of Georgia and Florida?

    What guidelines must companies follow, what is not allowed etc.

    Thank you

    Generally speaking, they can look for whatever they want, wherever they want, as long as they don't commit crimes when gathering the information. What sort of laws are you looking for? Restrictions on harassment of people that don't want to talk to them? Restrictions on their breaking into buildings, or hacking into computer systems, to look for information?

    I am looking for the guidelines provided by the state when an employer seeks a background check. I know they have them I just cannot locate them for these two states anywhere online.

    Despite your "knowing" these guidelines exist, I suspect you're looking for something that doesn't exist.

    Give us some idea of what sorts of things you think the law limits or mandates. Maybe that will give us an idea whether you are just plain wrong or whether we are misunderstanding you.
