X-4 Success
The term ex-offender is broad and directed at any individual with a criminal background, whether a misdemeanor or felony, which includes some traffic violations. The term 'ex' is defined as something done in the past, considering over 10 million Americans are employed with a criminal background and are generally predicated on occupation vs. offense.
Some employers are sensitive, understand everyone makes mistakes, and decisions are made on a case-by-case basis. One of our goals is to work with 'Another Chance' Employers to create equity, equality and inclusion in the workplace.
