The Effect Of Criminal Records On Access To Employment, Amanda Agan, Sonja B. Starr

Articles

This paper adds to the empirical evidence that criminal records are a barrier to employment. Using data from 2,655 online applications sent on behalf of fictitious male applicants, we show that employers are 60 percent more likely to call applicants that do not have a felony conviction. We further investigate whether this effect varies based on applicant race (black versus white), crime type (drug versus property crime), industry (restaurants versus retail), jurisdiction (New Jersey versus New York City), local crime rate, and local racial composition. Although magnitudes vary somewhat, in every subsample the conviction effect is large, significant, and negative.

Utilizing Credit Reports For Employment Purposes: Casting A Wider Net Into The Ocean Of Employment Practices Results In Unintended Yet Much Needed Outcomes, David D. Schein, James D. Phillips

David D. Schein

In our previous article, “Holding Credit Reporting Agencies Accountable: How the Financial Crisis May be Contributing to Improving Accuracy in Credit Reporting”[1] we reviewed the legal history of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and its amendments, and the Federal case law by circuit. We suggested that the ability of consumers to ensure the accuracy and security of their credit reports might lead to an expansion of the litigation surrounding accurate credit reporting. This article takes the discussion further by exploring the ever-expanding use of credit reports in the employment law arena. We review the state legislation limiting the use …

Applicants To Prize Winner Organizations As Winners-James T. Struck Ba, Bs, Aa, Mlis Case Study, James T. Struck

James T Struck

Applicants to Peace Prize Winner Organizations as Winners of those Prizes-James T. Struck BA, BS, AA, MLIS Case Study Applicants to Peace Prize Winner Organizations can arguably be seen as co-winners of those prizes related to employment discrimination concepts. As employment discrimination is illegal, people like me here in this application letter who applied to work with the Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) 8/2013 can be seen as winners of those prizes. The legal implications of applicants being co-winners are clearly controversial. Should co-winners have some share of the prizes? As prize competition is an industry, prize applicants …

Understanding Mixed Motives Claims Under The Civil Rights Act Of 1991: An Analysis Of Intentional Discrimination Claims Based On Sex-Stereotyped Interview Questions, Heather K. Gerken

Michigan Law Review

This Note analyzes the Civil Rights Act of 1991 and relevant case law to determine whether posing sex-stereotyped interview questions is actionable conduct under Title VII. It questions whether proof of discrimination during a phase in the hiring process, specifically during the interview stage, supports a Title VII claim without other independent evidence that the hiring decision was discriminatory. Part I explains that the circuit courts have envisioned the impact of discrimination during the hiring process differently and, as a result, are divided in determining whether sex-stereotyped interview questions are actionable under Title VII. Part II examines the legislative history …

Employee Recruitment By Design Or Default: Uncertainty Under Title Vii, Elaine W. Shoben

Scholarly Works

The employment of every new worker is the result of a two-stage process: recruitment of applicants and selection from the applicant pool. A personnel officer may evaluate only John and Jane Worker because Juan and Juanita Worker are not in the applicant pool. What active or passive acts by the company establish the applicant pool? The issue becomes particularly troublesome when Juan and Juanita Worker are members of one minority group and John and Jane Worker are members of another racial or ethnic minority group. May employers legally recruit more actively from one group than another?

This Article examines the …
