EMPLOYMENT STUDY-CHILD SUPPORT

Summary
Amends the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois.

Provides that the study may include data related to the prevalence of information regarding unpaid child support on standard employer credit and background checks, the prevalence of criminal versus civil judgments on standard employer credit and background checks, and the number of employers who utilize this information when screening applicants for employment. Requires the Department to report the results of the study to the Governor and the General Assembly on or before May 1, 2017. Repeals the new provisions on January 1, 2018. Effective July 1, 2015.
