This Law Firm Publication by Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart P.C. discusses a new poster Philadelphia employers are required to display under recent amendments to Philadelphia's "ban the box" law. The new poster, released by the Philadelphia Commission on Human Relations, must be displayed in a conspicuous place in the employer's workplace and on its website beginning March 14, 2016, when the amendments take effect. The poster includes language from the law regarding what employers must do if they reject an applicant based in whole or in part on criminal record information.
