Employment is a contract between two parties, one being the employer and the other being the employee. An employee may be defined as: "A person in the service of another under any contract of hire, express or implied, oral or written, where the employer has the power or right to control and direct the employee in the material details of how the work is to be performed." Black's Law Dictionary page 471 (5th ed. 1979).

In a commercial setting, the employer conceives of a productive activity, generally with the intention of generating a profit, and the employee contributes labour to the enterprise, usually in return for payment of wages. Employment also exists in the public, non-profit and household sectors. To the extent that employment or the economic equivalent is not universal, unemployment exists.

What can potential employers find out on employment history and credit report?
Q. I just got offered a position but it is contingent upon employment history check and a credit report. I quit the last job I had without much of a notice because of personal family issues and I was no longer able to work and I told my boss that. Will this hurt my chances of officially getting this new job? What all do they need ask on employment history and credit reports?? I'm a little nervous I might not get this job... Thanks!

A. Having been out of the business world for 15 years, many things may have changed. The most important factor was the experience the person was bringing to the job, and the resume which could be checked.In a few instances we hired and trained for particular jobs due to their specialization. We never looked for a credit report. That was personal and no business of the company. Where cash sales were concerned, we instituted a double check for sales and cash balancing and the manager was responsible for accuracy. He was also responsible for the deposits.
