What is Fair Chance Recruitment?
Fair Chance Recruitment is:
- A set of benchmark principles that employers can apply to ensure they are inclusive and compliant when recruiting people with criminal records.
- Designed in consultation with employers, data protection experts, and people with a criminal record.
- A range of good practice, legal requirements and business-protective measures.
- An overarching guide; each principle is accompanied by in-depth guidance for step-by-step implementation.
- A tool to ensure that employers can find the best candidates, applicants are treated fairly, and criminal records are managed lawfully.
- Inspired by the Fair Chance Hiring movement in the US
