North Carolina employment screening law: Giving Employment References in North Carolina

Employment law in North Carolina provides that employers disclosing job performance information to a prospective employer is immune from civil liability for the disclosure or resulting consequences. The immunity granted does not apply if the the evidence establishes that the information disclosed was untrue and the employer knew or reasonably should have known the information was untrue. Job performance information covered by this statute includes the employee’s suitability for reemployment including related skills, abilities, and traits and the reason for the employee’s separation. (N.C. Stat. §1-539.12)

North Carolina employment screening law: North Carolina At Will Law doctrine

In North Carolina, all employees are presumed to be "at will." At-will employees may be terminated for any reason, so long as it is not illegal. Generally, employees who work under an employment contract can only be terminated for reasons specified in the contract. However, in North Carolina, the mere fact that an employment contract is in writing is not sufficient to overcome the presumption that the employment is at-will. To overcome this presumption, an employment contract must directly limit, in a meaningful and special way, the employer's right to terminate the employee without cause. In other words, the employer has to unequivocally indicate that it will not terminate the employee except under specific circumstances.

Please note that Federal law mandates background checks for employees who are engaged in particular industries. The Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services maintains a list of individuals who are excluded from participation in any of its federally-funded healthcare programs. Exclusions are due to convictions for program-related fraud and patient abuse, licensing board actions and default on health education assistance loans. Therefore, employers in affected industries should check the OIG Exclusion list before hiring employees who might work in such programs. The FACIS program is also very important when screening medical personnel. Click Here for more information on FACIS.
