Solely for an arrest - in most cases no. For a conviction, yes - they can.

Ok, so we agree that pending charges can be used as a reason not to hire someone. Awesome.

But they CAN use an arrest as a reason not to hire someone if they determine that the alleged conduct makes the applicant a bad fit for the position.

So that says pretty much what the link I posted says which is essentially that arrests alone shouldn’t be the basis for refusing to hire someone but you can refuse to hire based the alleged conduct if it disqualifies the applicant for the position or if you Decide the conduct is a good reason not to hire them.

That is correct. As you showed yourself, an arrest isn't a valid reason and in application - in many states, refusing a job on the basis of an unrelated conviction can be grounds for discrimination.

Actually nevermind, I’ll show you.
> The fact of an arrest does not establish that criminal conduct has occurred. Arrest records are not probative of criminal conduct, as stated in the Commission's 1990 policy statement on Arrest Records. However, an employer may act based on evidence of conduct that disqualifies an individual for a particular position.
The only thing I see in EEOC guidelines is that employers are supposed to treat people with similar convictions in a similar manner. Nothing prohibits or even necessarily discourages employers from refusing to hire people with pending charges.

Took a fat PPP loan, got it forgiven, closed the store anyway and blamed "government handouts" - they're pieces of shit.

If you lease it’s in your monthly bill.

Doogies on the Berlin Turnpike. Dogs aren't special, cheesesteak is great. Prefer them over G's.

That would be sick. Visit the Webb Dean Steven museum and buy weed named something like The American Green or prerolled Silas sticks or Wet Webb. The wraps could look like dollar bills. A massive spliff called The Diplomat…..sorry.

Reply to comment by traanquil in Connecticut to Test Speed Enforcement Cameras in Work Zones Beginning in April by NewsHugh
Besides being unconstitutional IMO, it’s another in a long line of civil liberty violations. And if they make it a civil infraction only then it’s just another in a long line of regressive taxation. Finally, getting a fine, weeks after an infraction does nothing to solve the problem it purports to solve.

No, we don't agree. I literally just said for just an arrest - no. Only a conviction and only if it's related.
