Background Checks: Job Applications

The point of the Background Check on prospective employees is so the employer can make a good decision about whether they should hire the said prospective employee. It is the right of the employer to decide whether not they if they want to hire the prospective employee. This means that the employer should be allowed access to the prospective employee’s information to an extent that pertains to the job the prospective employee is applying for.  This includes people’s criminal records whether that be a misdemeanor of a felony. The purpose of these background checks is to give employer the needed information to decide on whether the employer should hire the prospective employee into their place of business. It is not the peoples personal right to have a job. Nowhere in the constitution does it say the “People have a right to have a job from employers.”. Therefore, business is in the private sector the government has influence but not control.
