Arkansas Expands Employer Disclosure Rights

The Arkansas Code § 11-3-204(a)(1), concerning the information that may be disclosed by a current or former employer to a prospective employer, has been amended to include “a substantiated allegation of sexual abuse or sexual harassment by the employee, or the resignation by a former employee during a pending investigation of an allegation of sexual abuse or sexual harassment against the former employee.”

Note that employers may disclose this information only upon receipt of written consent from the current or former employee.
