3121.02 - BACKGROUND CHECK - PART-TIME/SEASONAL EMPLOYEES
In continuing our effort of maintaining a safe environment for participants and staff members, the Community Recreation and Education Department, under the guidelines set by the Board of Education, requires a background check of each part-time/seasonal employee applicant eighteen (18) years of age and older.
No applicant will be permitted to work in any position until all areas of the background check are completed. The background check will include, but is not limited to, fingerprints submitted to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, required documentation of residency within the State of Ohio for a minimum of five (5) consecutive years, and submission of fingerprints to the Federal Bureau of Investigation if the applicant is unable to provide the five (5) year proof of residency.
Information obtained through the background check will remain on file in the Community Recreation and Education Department and will not be disseminated without prior approval of the applicant.
The Community Recreation and Education Department requires a background check for any part-time/seasonal applicant every five (5) years and reserves the right to require a background check at any time if deemed to be necessary for maintaining a safe environment for participants and staff members.
Part-time/seasonal applicants are responsible for covering all expenses for completing their background check.
Any part-time/seasonal applicant providing false information will be immediately disqualified from employment for any current or future position.
