About this file

This is a Louisville Metro Government policy certification form regarding hiring practices for vendors conducting business with the city. The form implements Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance (LMCO) Section 112.30, which prohibits vendors from including questions about criminal history on initial employment applications, commonly known as "ban the box" legislation. Vendors must certify compliance with this ordinance as part of their contract evaluation criteria, and the city retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or not renew contracts for non-compliance.

The certification includes seven specific exceptions where the criminal history inquiry prohibition does not apply, including positions involving cash handling over $500, access to confidential information, unsupervised access to minors or vulnerable adults, unsupervised access to homes, positions required by law to conduct background checks, federal/state/local law prohibitions on hiring individuals with felonies, and sole source contracts with Louisville Metro Government. The form requires the contractor's authorized official to sign, print their name and title, and date the certification, affirming either compliance with the ban-the-box practice or indicating which exceptions apply to their specific contract situation.

(2) The standards established in this chapter and the criminal history policies shall be a part of the evaluation criteria when awarding City contracts. The City shall retain at all times the authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate or not renew a contract with a vendor for failing to comply with the standards established in this section.
