TO APPLICANT: We deeply appreciate your interest in our organization. Thank you for taking the time to complete this application. The Civil Rights Act 0f 1964 prohibits discrimination in employment because of race, color, religion, sex or national origin. Federal law also prohibits other types of discrimination such as age, citizenship, disability, veteran status, attainment of benefits, and participation in union activities. The laws of most states and many localities also prohibit some or all of the above types of discrimination as well as some additional types including, but not limited to, discrimination based upon ancestry, marital status, parental status, sexual orientation, or source of income. The Fair Credit Reporting Act imposes restrictions with respect to information obtained from a consumer reporting agency, including but not limited to information regarding credit data, personal character, general reputation and mode of living. This list, however, is not exhaustive of the grounds on which discrimination is prohibited.
