Because the regulatory environment around background checks isn’t always easy to navigate, we serve our clients with a solid commitment to compliance. Atlantic is a member in good standing of the Professional Background Screening Association (PBSA), which certifies our processors for compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). All of Atlantic’s background reports are prepared and delivered within the FCRA guidelines and other state and local laws where applicable.
