HR ProFile’s Compliance Officer, John Robinson, will host Sarah Clay Leyshock with Taft, Stettinius & Hollister LLP for this month’s Cincinnati Tri-State ASIS meeting. Since HR ProFile provides Employment Screening and Background Checks, the company partners with law firms to ensure Compliance in areas of Regulations, Security, Employment Law, EEOC and FCRA.
The month’s meeting will be held at Champs Restaurant in West Chester, OH on Wed., January 28th at 11:30am EST. The meeting will include networking and Sarah Clay Leyshock as the guest speaker. A brief description of Sarah’s talk is below:
Employers routinely run criminal background checks during the hiring process to protect themselves and their customers and to limit exposure to negligent hiring lawsuits. The EEOC regulates employers’ use of criminal background checks under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under a theory of disparate impact—that is, where a neutral background check policy disproportionately screens out individuals of a protected class. I’ll be discussing the best practices for employers to avoid and defend against these types of claims, as well as the status of the EEOC’s recent enforcement efforts.
