The movement to “Ban the Box” and prohibit employers from inquiring about a job applicant’s criminal history on employment applications continues to grow. This session will review the recent legal developments that will increase scrutiny of employers’ criminal background check policies and suggest strategies for dealing with these new constraints on the use of background checks.
Why I joined the Chamber
“The Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce has always been here serving the business community. I think it’s important for business owners and managers in Tallahassee to really look at all of the new services the Chamber is providing that especially new businesses. The Business Advocacy Committee over the last few years has lead the charge on every major public policy issue the community has faced. With the BAC’s efforts, the business community is on the front end of discussions helping to lead direction and provide facts instead of waiting for things to happen. We owe the Chamber a lot of kudos for their proactive focus.”
