Notification and Authorization to Release Criminal
Information for Employment Purposes
Notification
The position for which I am being considered requires me to consent to a criminal background
check as a condition of employment. This check includes the following: Criminal history
reference searches for felony and misdemeanor convictions at the county and federal levels of
every jurisdiction where I currently reside or where I have resided during the past 7 years; and
sex offender registry searches at the county and federal levels in every jurisdiction where I
currently reside or where I have resided.
Authorization
I hereby authorize Gateway Pediatric Therapy to conduct the criminal background check
described above. In connection with this, I also authorize the use of law enforcement agencies
and/or private background check organizations to assist Gateway Pediatric Therapy in collecting
this information. ADP has been secured as a third party vendor (consumer reporting agency) to
assist Gateway Pediatric Therapy in collecting and verifying information.
I also am aware that records of arrests on pending charges and/or convictions are not an absolute
bar to employment. Such information will be used to determine whether the results of the
background check reasonably bear on my trustworthiness or my ability to perform the duties of
my position in a manner which is safe for Gateway Pediatric Therapy clients, employees, and
other community members.
