Define which city jobs can still ask about criminal history on applications
In Plain English
Richmond passed a 'ban the box' law preventing the city from asking job applicants about criminal convictions upfront. The law allows exceptions for 'sensitive positions' but didn't define what those are. This resolution creates that definition so the city knows which jobs can still ask about criminal history during the application process.
