SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Disclosure of information regarding employee or former employee; state and local law-enforcement agency job applicants. Provides that an employer acting in good faith may not be held liable for disclosing to a state or local law-enforcement agency, information about job performance or the reason for termination of employment of an employee or former employee if (i) the employee or former employee is seeking employment as a law-enforcement officer with such law-enforcement agency, (ii) the request is made in writing, and (iii) the information released is documented in the employee’s personnel file. There is a rebuttable presumption of good faith unless a preponderance of the evidence shows the employer acted with malice, intentionally or recklessly disclosed false information, or disclosed information that is protected under a nondisclosure agreement.
