For the first time since the EEOC issued enforcement guidance on the use of criminal records in employment 25 years ago, the agency has updated that guidance. At a time when increasing numbers of Americans have an arrest or conviction in their past and jobs remain scarce, the guidance seeks to balance the employers' interests in keeping employees safe on the job and protecting their business interests, while providing qualified workers with a fair opportunity at employment.
This panel, featuring Carol Miaskoff, Acting Associate Legal Counsel of the EEOC, will explore the nuances of recently-issued enforcement guidance on the arrest or conviction records in employment decisions. Learn how the updated guidance determines disparate impact of policies or practices that screen individuals based on criminal records. Have your questions answered as to how the factors for determining whether criminal conduct is job-related or consistent with the business necessity standard and defense.
