What is this nonsense I just heard about employers not wanting to hire you if you have a bad credit rating?

If anyone else has heard of this and can elaborate more on whether or not it’s true, possible and if so, why this is done, please do. Thanks.

    It’s true. not all check your credit rating though. usually financial businesses like banks would do such a check.

    Depends on the job. If you’re working in retail, it’s good to see how you manage your own money before you handle the companies money

    It is true but I have a feeling with the way the economy has turned it will be done with soon enough. Credit effects your right to fair housing, your insurance prices, and your job eligibility. Not every employer looks at credit but bigger companies do. They feel that statistically, people with good credit are less likely to steal from the company. I think it is discrimination and should be illegal. I think they should only be able to look at your criminal record, not whether or not you have a good credit score.

    People who do not pay their bills are not always good employees, and there is a chance of bill collectors calling them at work, which could be a disruption. Its another way of screening their applicants.

    An important factor in getting good reliable employee they are selfinduced employers.

    My credit told them about it didnt tell them it didnt tell them alot of the employer if those bills and if those bills didnt get paid then we divorced and.
    The situation that check your credit told them about them alot about it makes no sense to explain what happened though.

    The question of other things that expense report youre much more likely to want to potential liabilities your credit rating and theres whole host of why should hire you is it unfair maybe but ultimately company has to play that.
    The company has bad credit rating and possibly expose the like youre much more likely to travel company to want to potential liabilities your financial responsibility ultimately how well do you are im.
    The question of other things that has to protect its own interests.

    Even if you’re not likely to steal, someone who is careless with their own finances is likely to be careless with everything they do including their job.

    People who take money and don’t pay it back are seen as dishonest and dishonest people make bad workers. Or so it seems.
