    I worked for crete back in 2011. I was in Ottawa, IL shop once and while getting out of the mechanic shop scratched left side of trailer. My question is how long does crete will keep it on their files as its been already 4 years or is there and way that I can have them take it off as this is the only incident on my dac.... any help will be appreciated. thanx

    If a scratched trailer 4 years ago is the only thing on your record, I'd say you have a #### good record. I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep over it.

    Also, it doesn't matter how long Crete keeps thing on file unless you're trying to get rehired. It's all up to the DAC guys now.

    Not quite. Yes and no. Ultimately it's them that would have to be the ones to take it off, but HireRight is legally considered a credit bureau and the DAC is legally considered a credit report. Obviously they're not, but early on, when HireRight first came into being, there were severe problems with employers placing false information on peoples' reports through HireRight, and they got sued. After the court battles, the federal gov't looked into it and decided that the most effective way to provide check and balance on HireRight and its reports would be to treat them as a credit bureau and make them subject to all the laws and regulations credit bureaus are required to follow.

    This means that for anything on your DAC report, you can hit HireRight with a notice of validation, just like you would something on your credit, with Experian, etc. They then HAVE to get paperwork from the company that reported it, proving that it was you, and that the incident actually happened. If they don't get that within 30 days, bye-bye reported incident - whether it actually happened or not.

    It's also why in the absence of any notices of validation, reported incidents stay on your DAC for 7 years. Sound familiar? That's because it is.

    Dude, you averaged $384 a week at Werner, you never worked for Crete, because they won't hire you.
    Cough cough, go on welfare, earning a living by working is not for you.
