Overview

A criminal record can be a formidable employment barrier and is thus a major contributor to employment inequality, as most employers would rather avoid hiring an individual who has committed a crime. This book, offering an employer-centric view of the latest research findings, blends interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives and empirical findings to provide an overview and areas for future management research. The chapters assess the state of the field while highlighting the most critical themes that advance our understanding of the employment process and challenges for system-impacted individuals. Presenting a comprehensive assessment of the challenges and opportunities, this volume will appeal to disciplines related to organizational behavior, human resource management, and employment law, as well as any other disciplines that bear responsibility for enacting and crafting hiring and selection processes.
