Cleveland, OH, December 4, 2013–Conscientious employers conduct thorough background checks in the interest of making the most intelligent hiring decisions. When the results of an employment background check reveal a job candidate has a criminal record, it’s critical that organizations know the proper – and legally compliant – way to respond.
HR professionals are invited to attend a complimentary webcast from EmployeeScreenIQ entitled, “My Candidate Has a Criminal Record. Now What?” which will demonstrate the steps employers must take when a candidate’s criminal background check uncovers adverse information. Scheduled for December 10, this information-packed webinar features an all-star panel of background screening professionals and HR industry veterans who will discuss important legal considerations and share practical advice for developing a safe and compliant hiring protocol:
– Jason Morris, President, EmployeeScreenIQ
– Nick Fishman, Chief Marketing Officer, EmployeeScreenIQ
– Angela Preston, VP of Compliance and General Counsel, EmployeeScreenIQ
– L. Gordon Paisley, Sr. Manager, Talent Acquisition Service Center, United Airlines
– Tammy Henry, Sr. Manager, Workforce Risk Assessment and Strategy, Walmart
Attendees will learn:
– Precautions to ensure their organization’s hiring practices are legally compliant with FCRA & EEOC requirements.
– Essential considerations before making a hiring decision on a candidate with a criminal record.
– Best practices for individualized assessments and adverse action.
“Company hiring practices have fallen under increased government scrutiny and it’s critical that employers understand the implications of their actions and have a proactive process in place to address these unique hiring situations,” says Nick Fishman, chief marketing officer, EmployeeScreenIQ.
