What does Title III of the CCPA protect employees from?

Title III of the Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA) specifically addresses the issue of wage garnishment, particularly protecting employees from being discharged because of wage garnishment actions for a single debt. The law ensures that workers are not dismissed solely due to the consequences of a court-ordered wage garnishment. This provision is meant to safeguard workers' livelihoods and prevent them from facing job loss simply for having financial difficulties related to a specific debt.

The rationale behind this protection is to encourage stability and fairness in employment practices, ensuring that individuals who may be facing financial hardships do not also have to worry about jeopardizing their employment due to legal proceedings aimed at debt recovery.
