Chaos in job hunting: Litigation records become a roadblock to job hunting, and blurred legal boundaries lead to rights protection dilemmas

Applicants Liu Dan and Huang Ying were labeled as "yellow lights" by the back-tracking company due to their past litigation records (either as plaintiffs or defendants), resulting in multiple job search failures. Back-reporting agencies obtain sensitive information through non-public channels, exceeding the scope of legal necessity. Experts point out that background checks should be strictly limited to information directly related to the position, otherwise it may constitute employment discrimination. The difficulty for job seekers in safeguarding their rights has given rise to a gray industrial chain of "anti-faith-defence". At the same time, there is a trend of job-seekers turning against companies. The article reveals the data abuse, authorization traps and lack of legal supervision behind the back-channel chaos.
