Case 4-1 Second-Chance Employment 

Attitudes about hiring job applicants with criminal convictions are shifting. One company that believes in second-chance hiring is Dave's Killer Bread, because when people with a criminal background return from prison, their path to a better future greatly depends on a job-a second chance. After 15 years in prison, that's just what Dave's Killer Bread co-founder Dave Dahl got when his older brother Glenn welcomed him back to the family bakery. Dave went on to create what has become the No. I-selling organic bread and inspire a legacy of second chances at the company. Today, between 30 and 40 percent of the more than 250 employee-partners at the company's Oregon bakery have a criminal background. They hold positions ranging from entry-level jobs to managers who are responsible for critical bakery

operations. See http://www.daveskillerbread.com/about-us#about-us-I. Second-chance hiring sounds great in theory, but employers that conduct background checks during the hiring process must walk a fine

line between restrictions on background checks and not conducting such checks at all.

Your task: Develop a policy on second-chance hiring. Be sure to tailor your policy to the EEOC's guidance, "What you should know: The EEOC and

arrest and conviction records," accessible at https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/guidance/what-you-should-know-eeoc-and-arrest-and-conviction-records.
