MN SF3112

Adds "credit history" as a protected class under Minnesota employment discrimination law, making it illegal for employers, labor organizations, and employment agencies to discriminate based on credit history in hiring, compensation, terms, or conditions of employment.

Prohibits employers, labor organizations, and employment agencies from requesting or requiring job applicants to furnish information pertaining to credit history before employment or union membership, except for specific purposes like national security or compliance with federal contracting laws.

Extends credit history protections to labor organizations by preventing discrimination in membership rights, expulsion, hiring practices, apprenticeship, and employment referrals.

Makes employment agencies unable to refuse or fail to register, classify, or refer applicants based on credit history, or to comply with employer requests that indicate non-compliance with anti-discrimination provisions.

Provides that individuals required to furnish prohibited credit history information become aggrieved parties eligible to file complaints under Minnesota's discrimination complaint procedures.
