Remove criminal history question from city job applications
Labor & City WorkersPersonnelHuman ResourcesOrdinance
In Plain English
The city currently asks job applicants if they have ever been convicted of a crime on Question 14 of employment applications. This change removes that question entirely from the application process. The policy aims to give people with criminal records a fair chance to be considered for city jobs based on their qualifications first.
