Mostly I'm for it. It's in everybody's best interest if ex cons are able find honest work. But there are probably certain jobs where these questions are appropriate. I'm not sure where to draw the line, but ideally it would be more focused on specific types of crime. Like you don't want an embezzler working with cash or a domestic abuser working with kids, but the reverse wouldn't necessarily be a problem.
What do u think of the trend to stop asking for criminal.background?
