About this file
This is a Criminal History Screening Practices Certification form required by Broward County, Florida for vendors seeking contracts valued at $100,000 or more. The certification form documents a vendor's compliance with Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances, which mandates that vendors implement policies, procedures, and practices that restrict criminal history inquiries for employment applicants until they have been selected as finalists and interviewed for positions. The requirement applies exclusively to positions located within the United States that will foreseeably perform work under the Broward County contract. Vendors must complete and return the form with their submittal or within three business days of the County's request, with failure to comply resulting in a determination of non-responsiveness.
The certification requires vendors to select one of two options: either certify that they have implemented or will implement the required criminal history screening practices upon contract award, or claim exemption from the requirements due to federal, state, or local law mandates or governmental agency status. Non-compliance with Section 26-125(d) during the contract term constitutes material breach and entitles Broward County to pursue all available remedies, including contract termination and potential debarment or suspension proceedings under Chapter 21 of the Broward County Administrative Code. The form, dated September 9, 2024, must be signed by an authorized vendor representative and includes fields for vendor name, signature, printed name, title, and date.

CRIMINAL HISTORY SCREENING PRACTICES CERTIFICATION
The completed form should be returned with the Vendor’s submittal. If not provided with the submittal, Vendor must submit the form within three business days after County’s request. Vendor may be deemed nonresponsive for failure to fully comply within the stated timeframe.
Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances (“Criminal History Screening Practices”) requires that a Vendor seeking a contract in the amount of $100,000 or more with Broward County shall certify:
A. Vendor has implemented, or will implement upon award of the contract, policies, practices, and procedures regarding inquiry into the criminal history of an applicant for employment, including a criminal history background check of any such person, that preclude inquiry into an applicant's criminal history until the applicant is selected as a finalist and interviewed for the position.
B. This requirement shall apply only to positions located within the United States that will foreseeably perform work under a contract with Broward County.
C. The failure of Vendor to comply with Section 26-125(d) at any time during the contract term shall constitute a material breach of the contract, entitling Broward County to pursue any remedy permitted under the contract and any other remedy provided under applicable law.
D. If Vendor fails to comply with Section 26-125(d) at any time during the contract term, Broward County may, in addition to all other available remedies, terminate the contract and Vendor may be subject to debarment or suspension proceedings consistent with the procedures in Chapter 21 of the Broward County Administrative Code.
By signing below, Vendor certifies that it is aware of the requirements of Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances and certifies the following: (check only one box below).
☐ Vendor certifies that, for positions located within the United States that will foreseeably perform work under a contract with Broward County, it has implemented, or will implement upon award of the contract, policies, practices, and procedures regarding inquiry into the criminal history of an applicant for employment, including a criminal history background check of any such person, that preclude inquiry into an applicant's criminal history until the applicant is selected as a finalist and interviewed for the position.
☐ Vendor is exempt from the requirements of Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances because Vendor is required by applicable federal, state, or local law to conduct a criminal history background check in connection with potential employment at a time or in a manner that would otherwise be prohibited by this section, or because Vendor is a governmental agency.
