Fair Chance Hiring Compliance Platform Demo: Los Angeles County

Los Angeles Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance

It is the policy of the County to overcome the stigma and unfair biases associated with persons with criminal records when employers are making hiring and employment decisions, and to ensure individuals with criminal history have fair and equitable access to opportunities for gainful employment in Los Angeles County. The Fair Chance Ordinance for Employers has been enacted to achieve this policy, which enhances public health, makes communities safer, and achieves rehabilitative outcomes.

  • Applies to employers with 5 or more employees and positions involving at least 2 hours/week in unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County.
  • Criminal history inquiries are prohibited before making a conditional job offer (with limited exceptions).
  • Employers may not consider convictions older than 7 years (with limited exceptions).
