Second-Chance Hiring

Refers to the practice of giving individuals with a criminal record an opportunity to obtain employment. It recognizes that people who have made mistakes in the past should not be permanently excluded from the workforce. Second-chance hiring programs aim to provide individuals with a chance to rebuild their lives, reintegrate into society, and contribute positively to their communities.
