Don’t bring your job with you!

When Memorial Day weekend began, our mind started to focus on the savored summertime season. Barbeques, swimming in pools, walks along the sea or just swinging in a back yard hammock to catch up on some well needed R&R are all part of the season’s fun, but too many of us forget to clock out at work, even if we are on a family beach vacation.

You would be naive to think that all everyone is honest when they fill out a job application, especially when it asks if the applicant has been convicted of a felony.  They may think that they will not be hired if they answer truthfully.  Employers should perform a criminal background check on applicants to be sure they don’t have a criminal background.  If not, they could be subject to legal ramifications for negligent hiring practices.
