California Fair Chance Employer Sample Letters for Hiring

Our recent blog, Fair Chance Hiring in the Golden State: 10 “Best Practices” for Employers, offers analysis surveying four different fair chance laws and regulations in California—The California Fair Chance Act (FCA), Fair Employment and Housing Council Regulations, and the San Francisco and Los Angeles Fair Chance Ordinances. Standards are described for employers to achieve more robust compliance with all four California laws, and to advance statewide best practices.

Along with an outline of provisions to protect jobseekers and employees with conviction records, sample letters for employers to use throughout the hiring process:

• Sample conditional offer letter
• Written notice of the preliminary decision
• Written notice of the final decision
