What is the name of your state? Michigan
Hello all,
I have previously written about a company that I had to file a wage complaint form for failure to pay me for two weeks of service.
The issue was resolved, with the company in question paying me in full the amount I was owed. Mind you, this was after several e-mail exchanges and the state of Michigan getting involved to issue payment from said company.
HOWEVER
I have recently undergone a background check with a new employer. Naturally, I had to list the previous employer on my resume/background information.
I did state that I was fired from the previous company and not eligible for rehire.
Said company responded back to the background check and said that I was fired, and not eligible for rehire.
HOWEVER, said company did not present any specific reason why I was not eligible for rehire. The same individual that I spoke with regarding my pay, is the same individual whom submitted the information to the background company.
Since they did not provide sufficient information the background check came back with an "inconsistency." I have since called in to dispute the findings due to the wage complaint I filed with the state.
I feel that said company will not give me a proper background check for the new employment.
Is there any legal action that can be taken against said company if they fail to respond as to why I was fired, and I am ultimately disqualified for employment from the new job?
Thanks,
Josh
