FCRA violations loom
Uber has partnered safety data provider Appriss to conduct the checks.
Appriss collects the data (Arrest, Incarcerations, etc.) in real time and then notifies Uber if a driver has a new criminal offense,
Uber then decides whether it wants to suspend the driver based on that data.
'Ultimately what we're looking for...is a way to get the same kind of info as in a background check, but get it in a real-time manner,' Uber vice president of safety and insurance Gus Fuldner said.
