HB 4083

Abstract

Amends the Right to Privacy in the Workplace Act. Removes language making it a violation of the Act to: (i) use the Employment Eligibility Verification System to verify the employment eligibility of job applicants prior to hiring or to otherwise use the Employment Eligibility Verification System to screen individuals prior to hiring and prior to the completion of a Form I-9; or (ii) terminate an employee or take any other adverse employment action against an individual prior to receiving a final nonconfirmation notice from the Social Security Administration or the Department of Homeland Security. Removes language permitting any claim that an employer refused to hire or acted with respect to hiring, renewal of employment, or selection for training or apprenticeship without following the procedures of the Employment Eligibility Verification System, including the Basic Pilot and E-Verify programs, to be brought under the Illinois Human Rights Act. Makes conforming changes to the Illinois Human Rights Act.
