Under 18 Pa. C.S. 9125 of the Pennsylvania Criminal History Record Information Act, employers can use an applicants criminal conviction information only when doing so complies with the following provisions: Felony and misdemeanor convictions if they relate to the applicants suitability for the position.
Restricts inquiries into the criminal history of an applicant until after a conditional job offer has been made. An employer cannot ask whether an applicant is willing to submit to a background check prior to a conditional offer of employment.
Yesbut it depends on the circumstance and overly broad criminal history blanket bans (for example, refusing to rent to anyone with a criminal record no matter how long ago the conviction occurred) can violate the Fair Housing Act.
Employers cannot ask about your criminal background on job applications or during any job interview. Employers can run your criminal background check ONLY AFTER a conditional offer of employment is made (final hiring depends on the results of your background check).
Employers often perform background checks before extending job offers. A brief period in between a background check and a job offer is common because the results of a background check can result in an employer choosing to hire a different applicant.
