Can someone clarify Hawaii law on this subject?
SSAN - Does the law say an employer can't ask for an applicant's SSAN or is it the employer is required to adhere to the law regarding security of the SSAN? So, if there is a breech of internal security and the employee’s information may have been compromised, the employer must follow all the steps outlined in law regarding their liability for potential harm?
Credit Check - Does the law say they can't run a credit check or does it say they can't use the credit check against the employee unless directly related to the job obligations? So, a credit check can be run and used in employment decisions for a jewelry store salesperson but not for a hotel landscaper?
