Existing ExactHire ATS clients that employ individuals in the state of Maine should take measures to comply with Maine's Legislative Document (LD) 1167 (HP 845) effective October 18, 2021.
If your employment application includes question(s) related to an applicant's criminal record history, then please consult with your employment attorney whether the wording of your question(s) is compliant with state and federal laws. It is important that you know the state regulations on collecting applicants' criminal history data for EACH state in which you hire.
Should you need to change your application language to become compliant, please email us at support@exacthire.com with your desired wording for the criminal history related question(s). Based on your existing application, we will create a new application using the language you request in order to be compliant. NOTE: If you need different versions of your application to comply with laws across different states in which you hire, we can absolutely accommodate that as HireCentric supports multiple external applications.
