A recent correspondence from Straightline International and the office of The German Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information provided some interesting insight about when background checks are acceptable.
Dr. Michaela Schultze, spokesperon, said,"According to German labour law principles, an employer is only entitled to ask about an applicant’s previous convictions if they are a matter of consequence for the tasks owed under the employment contract."
In addition, Schultze added, "Any verification by access to court records is not accounted for in the German Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA)."
