背景调查
A background check is a process through which an individual's personal, criminal, credit, and/or employment history is investigated and verified, typically by an employer, landlord, or other decision-maker. Background checks are often conducted to assess an individual's suitability for employment, housing, or other opportunities, as well as to ensure the safety and security of a workplace or community. Common elements of a background check may include verifying identity, checking criminal records, reviewing credit history, confirming education and employment history, and examining professional licenses or certifications. In many jurisdictions, background checks are regulated by laws such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to protect individual privacy and prevent discrimination.
