It depends upon the requirements for the job. In some sensitive jobs, it certainly could be a reason not to hire them. Some companies will never hire someone with a criminal record. It does tend to increase insurance rates in some industries.

How many years will a misdemeanor conviction show up on an employee background check in Florida?

A misdemeanor conviction is a permanent part of the offender's criminal history. In some cases, the person can file a petition with the court to have the it removed for reasons of employment.

When should you perform a background check?

Anytime and always would be the answer to when to do background check. Since the prices of background checks are so low there is really no reason not to run a background check.The top reasons I have found that people perform background checks are:1. To screen potential employees.2. To check up on someone they are involved with.3. To ensure the safety of their children with in-home workers or even activities that involve other adults caring for their children.4. To check on a potential business partner.5. To check on neighbors.6. Out of pure curiosity....I am sure there are other reasons as well but those are the top ones I have seen.Or to hire background checks you can visit employment-screening.com

Can you be fired for a criminal background check after you are hired?

If on your application you are asked if you have a record and you answer NO. Then you lied. For that reason you can be fired for lying. However if you answer yes, and then are hired, removing someone from his job for this reason will be hard for the employer. Added; The original answer is true only up to a point - if you are employed in a "right-to-work" state your employer can discharge you at any time for any reason.

You could petition the state to expunge your record of the offense - kind of lengthy and a little costly.

Can you ask a cop to follow someone?

Why? For what reason? Are you interested in hiring them to do "private duty" work for you? In some jurisdictions hiring off-duty officers to work for you is allowed - in others, it is not. It all depends on the rules of the agency for which he works, or local law. On the other hand, if you have pertinent information that an individual is engaged in, or about to engage in a criminal act, you can report it to the police and then it is up to THEM as to what course of action they choose to follow, or not.


Does misdemeanor probation have a statute of limitation in Georgia?

No. The reason being, because you have ALREADY been convicted of a crime and been sentenced. The fact that you haven't (or may not) yet completed your sentence is of no significance. Failing to complete a sentence of probation is akin to escaping from jail and then asking to be forgiven for it.
