WILL BAN GOVERNMENT FROM ASKING CRIMINAL HISTORY ON JOB APPLICATIONS

The proposal, described as “banning the box,” would delay an investigation into a potential employee’s criminal history until later in the process instead of the job application form.
“While most agencies already have taken this step, this action will better ensure that applicants from all segments of society, including those with prior criminal histories, receive a fair opportunity to compete for Federal employment,” noted a fact sheet released by the White House this morning.
Obama will detail his executive order later today during an event in Newark, New Jersey, which is largely a symbolic effort to convince United States employers to follow suit.
