How to Operationalize New Requirements Under Act 168
As detailed in last month’s Legal Focus article, Act 168 goes into effect December 22, 2014. The new regulation requires employers to complete a previous employer inquiry with applicants who will work directly with children. Similar to the previous employer inquiry completed under the DOT Drug and Alcohol regulations, the Act requires the applicant to disclose to all current and prior employers where the applicant had direct contact with children. The applicant will also be required to sign an authorization allowing prospective, current, and former employers to share information about any previous investigations of abuse or sexual misconduct and/or resignations or terminations while such investigation was in progress.
