Background Investigation Requirements:
Prospective appointees will be: 1) Checked against the Staff Exclusion List (SEL) maintained by the Justice Center for the Protection of People with Special Needs. Prospective employees whose names appear on the SEL as having been found responsible for serious or repeated acts of abuse or neglect will be barred from appointment and may have their names removed from the eligible list(s) for the title(s) if applicable. 2) Investigated through a Criminal Background Check (CBC) that includes State and federal Criminal History Record Checks. All convictions must be reported; conviction of a felony or misdemeanor, or any falsified or omitted information on the prospective appointee’s employment application may bar appointment or result in removal after appointment. Each case will be determined on its own merits, consistent with the applicable provisions of State and federal laws, rules, and regulations. Prospective employees will be fingerprinted in order to obtain a record of their criminal history information, and may be required to pay any necessary fees. 3) Screened against the Statewide Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment (SCR). Prospective employees may be required to pay any necessary fees. Additionally, prospective employees whose names are indicated on the SCR may be barred from appointment.
The purpose of the Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement (HELP) program is to temporarily place certain titles and positions, which would normally be classified as competitive, into the non-competitive class allowing State agencies to fill critical health, direct care, and safety titles more expeditiously.
Candidates accepting non-competitive appointment via the HELP Program will receive the same rate of pay, health benefits, and other ancillary benefits as their competitively appointed counterparts. Additionally, appointments made via the HELP program are permanent, and as such candidates will serve the same probationary period as any candidate who would otherwise be accepting a competitive-class appointment. The probationary period for employees hired under the HELP Program begins at the time of permanent non-competitive appointment, to last for a duration of 26-52 weeks. At the conclusion of the HELP program it is expected that all candidates appointed into non-competitive HELP titles will be transitioned to the equivalent competitive-class title, as the HELP program is temporary and only expected to last for a period of one year.
Some positions may require additional credentials or a background check to verify your identity.
