Makes it harder for employers to reject someone just because of a past conviction. Employers cannot ask about criminal history or run a background check until after giving a conditional job offer and explaining the job duties. If they want to deny the job because of a conviction, they must show in writing that the conviction is directly related to the job and give the applicant a chance to respond.
