ERISA Confronts ESG

Environmental, Social and Governmental issues, (“ESG”), has been paired with “Human Capital” issues in a sweeping movement that has progressed from university theories to the board rooms of some of the world’s biggest corporations over the last decade. There has also been a rapid growth of investments funds that advertise consideration of ESG and related issues. A practical question is whether employee benefit plans that are subject to strict regulations under the federal law known as ERISA can incorporate ESG considerations in selecting investments for these plans. At present, there is a distinct split of authority due to conflicting rules by the US Department of Labor. This paper will explore some of the key issues regarding ERISA and ESG

Utilizing Credit Reports for Employment Purposes: A Legal Bait and Switch Tactic

In our previous article, Holding Credit Reporting Agencies Accountable: How the Financial Crisis May be Contributing to Improving Accuracy in Credit Reporting we reviewed the legal history of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), its amendments, and the federal case law by circuit. We suggested that the ability of consumers to ensure the accuracy and security of their credit reports might lead to an expansion of the litigation surrounding accurate credit reporting. This article takes the discussion further by exploring the ever-expanding use of credit reports in the employment law arena. We review the state legislation limiting the use of credit reports by employers, the exceptions to these state statutes, and litigation related to those laws to date. This analysis is followed by an examination of the federal legal landscape and broader legal issues related to the use of credit reports, including whether the use of credit reports by employers discriminates against various protected groups. We conclude with a summary of our research, draw conclusions, and point to areas that should be explored in the future, and also speculate, based on a case from the US Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit that we discuss, that this consequence could once again operate to increase the accuracy of credit reporting and hold those agencies more accountable
