Grade A: Documented hires
Documented hires. A public record shows the employer has hired people with criminal records.
Grade B: Reentry program partner
Reentry program partner. A named hiring partner of a government or funded reentry program, or on a state or city second chance employer list.
Grade C: Public commitment
Public commitment. Signed a fair chance pledge, joined a second chance coalition, or published a fair chance hiring policy.
Grade D: Says so in its postings

How this index is built

Evidence grades

Every employer is listed because of public evidence that it hires people with criminal records. The evidence is graded A to D, and an employer's grade is its strongest piece of evidence. A state or city list counts only in the state it covers.

Record-safe jobs

A record-safe job is a live posting that does not ask for a clean record and is not in a role a tracked law bars to people with some records. Most postings say nothing about records, so they count as record-safe unless a law applies.

Legal bars

Roles that federal and state laws close to some people with records are tagged with the statute, for example in nursing, schools, child care, banking, commercial driving, airports and armed security. Those jobs are left out of the record-safe count. A tag marks the role, not the person: whether a law applies depends on the offense and how long ago it was.

Entry level

An entry-level job asks for one year of experience or less.

Freshness

Job counts come from live postings and are refreshed every six hours. Each listing shows the date its evidence was last checked against its source, and evidence older than 12 months is re-checked.

Being listed does not guarantee a job. A grade describes the public evidence about an employer, not a decision on any one application.

Found an error, or have evidence to add? Tell us and we will check it against the source.

For corrections, probation and reentry programs

Every state page prints as a handout: the employer table, the grade legend, the date the counts were refreshed and the page address. The index is free to print, copy and share, and each page has a CSV download with the same data.

To bring the index into a facility, a program or a caseload tool, talk to our team.
