Michigan HB4290 prohibits employers from seeking or asking about a job applicant's compensation history and credit history.
Michigan HB4290 amends the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act to prohibit employers from asking about a job applicant's past wages, fringe benefits, credit score, or credit history. Employers are also barred from requiring employees to sign documents that deny them the right to disclose their wages. Exceptions apply for employers legally required to use such information, such as for bonding purposes. This bill aims to prevent discrimination based on compensation and credit history during the hiring process.
