How many years does the background check review?
A Only conduct within 7 years before the date of the background check may be considered in making volunteer service and employment decisions. When it comes to employment decision-making, the 7-year limit for employment history is based on the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), which the Red Cross has extended to volunteer service as well.
