About this file
This is a Policy Certifications document from the Louisville Metro Government establishing compliance requirements for vendors under Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance Section 112.30, which prohibits discriminatory hiring practices against persons with prior criminal convictions. The ordinance requires that initial employment applications submitted by vendor employees not contain questions or "boxes" regarding applicant criminal history, unless exempted by state or federal law. The criminal history policies and compliance standards are incorporated as evaluation criteria in the City's contract award process, and the City retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or decline renewal of any vendor contract for non-compliance with these standards.
Seven specific exceptions to the ban-the-box requirements are outlined: positions involving handling of cash exceeding $500 or fiduciary responsibilities; access to confidential information such as social security numbers or financial data; unsupervised access to children under age 16, developmentally disabled persons, or vulnerable adults; unsupervised access to residents' homes; positions required by law to conduct criminal history checks; positions where federal, state, or local law prohibits hiring individuals with felonies; and sole source contracts with Louisville Metro Government. All responding vendors must complete the certification form, indicate which exceptions apply through checkboxes, provide their legal company name, and obtain signature authorization from an authorized official with date of certification. The document presented shows no exceptions selected, indicating full compliance with the ban-the-box policy requirements.
