The Diversity Group You’re Overlooking: How to be a Fair Chance Employer
Thank you for your submission.
Today, 1 in 3 Americans have a criminal record, ranging from minor offenses to extensive conviction histories. This leads to a brutal cycle of recidivism—due to a criminal record, their job application is met with greater scrutiny. They’re 5x more likely to be unemployed and are at greater risk of committing offenses out of survival.
The good news—employment is the single most important influence on decreasing recidivism. As a hiring manager, business leader, or HR leader, this is where you can make an impact and help break the cycle of recidivism.
In this eBook, you will learn:
- The benefits of fair chance hiring
- How to build a fair chance hiring plan for your organization
- The tools for conducting a skills-based interview
- How to set your fair chance talent up for long term success
“When we decided to spread our message of Second Chance Employment and assist companies across the country to embrace and adopt this philosophy, we found a few companies with the same shared belief in the power and transformation and opportunity.”
