Courts across the country are quietly changing what employers can see — and what they can rely on. As jurisdictions expand redactions of personally identifiable information from public records, the data that powers background screening decisions is becoming less complete, less consistent, and harder to verify.

For HR, Legal, and Compliance leaders, this isn’t a theoretical concern. It’s a compliance gap that’s already affecting how organizations screen candidates, adjudicate results, and defend hiring decisions.

In this session, Senior Director of Operations Mark Glascock cuts through the complexity to explain what’s actually happening at the court level — and what it means for employers navigating today’s screening landscape.

You’ll walk away understanding:

  • How court redaction trends are altering the availability and structure of criminal record data

  • Where individual privacy protections and employer compliance obligations begin to conflict

  • The downstream effects on screening consistency, adjudication frameworks, and legal exposure

  • What proactive organizations are doing now to build defensible processes as the landscape continues to shift

Whether you’re managing background screening programs, advising on employment policy, or overseeing HR compliance risk, this session delivers the context and clarity you need.
