§24-148. Request of consumer report – Notice to subject of report
Our Take: Employers in Oklahoma must first provide written notice to the job applicant before they can request a consumer report. The employer must inform the applicant that a consumer report will be used. Further, the notice must include a box for the applicant to check if she or he would like to receive a free copy of his or her consumer report.
