Would a judgement harm my job prospects?

[goodsaysir]

Sorry if this is wrong section couldn’t find correct

Is it possible to get a job with bad credit example debt judgment, in the likes of shop or factory



Are credit checks for these regularly done or is it usually for financial jobs


Hope someone can help to put mind at ease

Of course it is. . Your local shop won't have the time or the ability to carry out a credit check on you.

You will probably be asked to provide references

I already have a good job, was just worried in case I got debt judgments made against me and credit ruined if they left me gi would I be able to get another job

A small factory or shop are unlikely to check these so? Thanks for help

Rest assured employers don't run credit checks for potential employees.

Employers are not allowed to access your credit rating without your consent.
Having a bad credit rating would not be fair grounds for dismissal.
You could make an unfair dismissal claim against any employer who acted in this manner.

Your credit history

Your credit history has information about your loans. Find out how to get your credit report from the Central Credit Register.

Would it be an issue in the case of banking or other financial areas?

 

[goodsaysir]

if I had a judgment against me to enforce money owed for a debt

This would be different from credit check

Would I still be able to get a job in a non financial sector such as shop or factory etc
