HB 147 EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY FOR REFERENCE INFO Number 142 CHAIR MACLEAN next discussed HB 147 ("An Act relating to the disclosure of information by an employer about the job performance of an employee or former employee.") She stated that the new bill presumes an employer to be acting in good faith and, unless lack of good faith could be shown, relieves the employer of liability for the disclosure. Hearing no objections, CHAIR MACLEAN stated that the Task Force would co-sponsor HB 147.
