Describe privacy concerns in the context of third-party information request
Third-party information request arise primarily in the hiring stage. Relevant information is collected regarding the background of the applicant before actually hiring the applicant in the respective company. Information is collected from the former employer of the employee which is typically protected by a qualified privilege. Such communication between employers must be done in the absence of malice. Employers have opted to limit their responses to reference requests disclosing the dates of the former employee/applicant's, his/her salary, and job title because it usually is not safe to disclose and withhold much about the credentials of the employees. This could lead to tort liability in most circumstances by the former employers.
