- The City removed from the employment application form the check box asking applicants to indicate if they have been convicted of a crime.
• Firstly, the purpose is to remove the affect the question about criminal history may have on applicants who decide not to apply because of a prior conviction; the idea is that the nature of the crime and the time elapsed may not be relevant to the position for which the applicant is applying.
• Secondly, and as importantly, the purpose is to evaluate candidates based upon their merits and thereby provide an opportunity for the applicant to compete fairly for a position without bias.
