Question for some of the smarter folks in the crowd.
Nielsen has an automated system employees can use for employment verification, called The Work Number. My question is, is it legal for Nielsen to list a current employee’s employment status as “inactive” and to also disclose the date of termination if it is at a later date (this example: 8/29 and today’s date is 8/14). Are they legally allowed to disclose A) inaccurate information, or employment status and B) a future termination date? Google is giving varying opinions on the legality of this.
