Can employers find out whether...

you have ever been married and or divorced?

Do they even care?

Not in U.K.

They won’t care. They care about how you do your job - or if you have a characteristic to help them fulfil regulatory affirmative action - I.e dont have white skin or a penis.

LOL. I live in the US. Do you think I should say that I am divorced to fit in with the married and divorced crowd. (I am 33; some find that old to have never been married).

It's public record but why would anyone care?

OP, you ask some really weird things bro.

It probably only happens when they need your attention…
Why don’t you ask your employer and get back to us.

I am a manager for a corporate semiconductor company. I can assure you that this isn't relevant at all. For myself, I am concerned with how well someone can present themselves and work with others.

Asking about your relationship status is mostly a no no today. I wouldn’t worry about it.

In Canada yes they can. Public records.
