their current employer that they have made application with another employer and do not wish to have their
current employer contacted during the reference check, so we ask, may we contact your current employer?

disqualified from employment solely because of a prior conviction of crime. A person may be denied employment only if the crime was a
felony or first degree misdemeanor and it is directly related to the position of employment being sought. However, withholding or
falsifying information may result in termination if hired. Records searches are made on every individual hired.
