VIII.H. Second Reading of Policy 404, Employment Background Checks. (Attachment)
Speaker(s):
Member Clouse and Member Frank
Description:
This is the second reading to update policy 404, which was last looked at in April 2022. There are substantial changes to the model policy, hence we will do three readings and it would be scheduled for adoption at our June 23, 2025 meeting.
One area that is now included in the policy is the inclusion of language around "mandating credit checks when hiring staff that will be handling money or finances". This language does not currently exist in any policies adopted by the board and is part of standard hiring practice by businesses for individuals being hired to handle money or finances.
