FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT
I acknowledge that I have reviewed a clear and conspicuous Fair Credit Reporting Act Disclosure form. I understand
that the Town of Bedford may obtain consumer reports about me for employment purposes from a consumer
reporting agency. I understand and authorize the consumer reporting agency to verify my past and present driving
records, education records, credit history, and professional credentials. I further authorize the consumer reporting
agency contracted by the Town to perform a criminal records search. I also understand that:
The Town of Bedford may use consumer reports to evaluate me for employment, and, if I am hired, may use
consumer reports to evaluate me for other employment purposes.
The Town of Bedford may not obtain a consumer report about me for employment purposes without my
written authorization.
Before the Town of Bedford denies me employment or makes any other employment decision which
adversely affects me based in whole or in part on a consumer report, the Town of Bedford must first
provide me with a copy of the report and a summary of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
The Town of Bedford considers consumer reports to be important tools in its personnel administration,
audit and security practices. My failure to authorize the Town of Bedford to obtain a consumer report about
me may serve as grounds for the Town of Bedford to refuse to hire me. My revocation of such authority
may serve as grounds for the Town of Bedford to dismiss me from its employment.
I authorize the Town of Bedford and its agents, affiliates, or assign to obtain one or more consumer reports about me for
employment purposes at any time they may deem appropriate. I understand that the consumer reporting agency does
not guarantee the accuracy or timeliness of the information obtained from other third party sources. This is a continuing
authorization that shall remain in effect until I revoke it in writing.
