As organizations grapple with the challenges of hiring, they must
also consider how they will engage with some of the most
marginalized individuals in our society, such as individuals who
have a criminal history. Many individuals are interested in
returning to the workplace after obtaining a conviction. However,
many of these individuals will encounter substantial barriers and
exclusion when attempting to access employment in various
occupations and industries. For our society to function, all
individuals must have an opportunity to positively contribute, and
organizations can no longer sit on the side-lines. Organizations
have a responsibility to engage in hiring practices that encourage
entry, not exclusion. Now Hiring allows readers to consider their
individual biases, as well as their organizational employment
practices and processes, and assess how these factors may be
altered to increase hiring for individuals with a criminal history.
Young encourages readers to think more broadly about the role of
organizations and the responsibility that organizations have beyond
their immediate stakeholders. Most importantly, Now Hiring prompts
conversation and serves as a reminder that our current system is
not sustainable. As we await other long overdue changes to various
systemic issues, organizations must figure out how do their part.
Providing entry to the workplace after a criminal history is a
place to start.
