Second Chance Hiring
Second Chance Hiring is a practice where employers consider giving individuals with past criminal convictions an opportunity to work. The goal is to help these individuals reintegrate into society and reduce recidivism, while also addressing labor shortages. Companies evaluate applicants based on their skills, experience, and now, their potential for change, rather than solely focusing on their criminal history. This approach promotes fairness, economic inclusion, and community growth by providing employment options to those who have paid their debts to society.
