Building a Fair Chance Hiring Program in 2025: Ban-the-Box Legislation
Did you know that as many as 70 million Americans
have some type of criminal record that can negatively impact their ability to
find jobs? Fair Chance hiring is designed to give individuals with criminal
records greater employment opportunities.
As it currently stands, 37 states and 250
municipalities have enacted fair chance or ban-the-box laws, and more states
are following suit. Being a Fair Chance employer means that you base your
employment decisions on job applicants’ qualifications rather than on their
criminal records.
Areas Covered in the Session:
- What are Fair Chance hiring practices?
- Measures the Federal government has taken to
level the playing field

- Benefits of Fair Chance hiring

- Concept of Targeted Hiring
- Green Factors and criminal conduct screening
- Developing a comprehensive background
screening policy

- Fair Chance hiring practices across all stages
of employment: Recruiting, Hiring, Retention

Reporting Act (FCRA)
- Employer backlash to Ban-the-Box
Why you should Attend:
By developing the right
policies and procedures, employers demonstrate that they fully support Fair
Chance laws while also creating an inclusive workplace where diversity is
valued. Whether you’re new to Fair Chance hiring or in need of a refresher,
this webinar will provide you with the essential information you’ll need to
remain legally compliant by learning what Fair Chance hiring involves,
understand recent relevant laws, and how your organization can implement fair
chance hiring policies to remain legally compliant.
