According to Dollar Generals latest 10Q, they are being investigated by the EEOC regarding their Background Screening
Policy and how they use criminal records in hiring. The EEOC has
alleged that Dollar General has discriminated against minorities for the
way they apply their policy against applicants with criminal records.
Although the complaint has not been settled, it will be a long and arduous process to resolve this matter with the EEOC.
All
companies should review their employment screening policy and process
to adhere to the "New Guidelines" published by the EEOC.
