\n</div>\n\n\n<p>When bringing on new employees or volunteers, an Oregon background check may provide insight into a candidate’s history, beyond what they put on their application or resume. Employers can screen candidates directly or choose to work with a trusted consumer reporting agency (CRA). This guide to Oregon background checks takes a deeper look into how an Oregon background check works, what is included, how it is conducted, and which federal, state, and local laws may apply.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-an-oregon-background-check\">What Is An Oregon Background Check?</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An employment <a href=\"/background-checks/\">background check</a> in Oregon may be used to screen candidates or volunteers during the hiring process. It may include a candidate’s criminal record, employment history, educational background, driving records, credit history, and more. The information provided by the different reports can help your organization make more informed and fair hiring decisions.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, certain types of background checks, such as <a href=\"/screening/criminal-background-check/\">criminal records</a> and <a href=\"/screening/mvr-checks/\">motor vehicle reports</a>, can help Oregon employers protect their organization against potential liability claims, safeguard company assets, and create a safer workplace.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"common-oregon-background-checks\">Common Oregon Background Checks</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several types of employment background checks in Oregon that employers may choose to conduct when screening candidates. Here is a closer look at some of the most common types of background checks.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oregon Background Check For Employment</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An employment background check in Oregon may include one or multiple background screenings, including:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"/screening/criminal-background-check/\"><strong>Criminal background check</strong></a> to reveal criminal history information, including felony or misdemeanor convictions and pending criminal cases.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Employment verification</strong> to validate <a href=\"/screening/employment-verification/\">previous employers</a>, job titles, and employment dates.&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Education verification</strong> to confirm a candidate’s <a href=\"/screening/education-verification/\">academic background</a>, including dates of attendance, degrees obtained, and graduation dates.</li><li><a href=\"/screening/mvr-checks/\"><strong>Driving record checks</strong></a> to review a candidate’s driving history, including license status and class, moving violations, suspensions, and restrictions, and vehicle-related criminal convictions such as DUIs. This screening may be more commonly used for positions that involve driving on the job.</li><li><strong>Credit checks</strong> to assess a candidate’s <a href=\"/screening/employment-credit-report/\">credit history</a>, including payment history, collections, and bankruptcies. This screening may be more commonly used for positions with financial responsibility, where allowed by Oregon state law.&nbsp;</li><li><a href=\"/screening/drug-testing/\"><strong>Drug testing</strong></a> to screen a candidate for the presence of controlled substances, including illicit drugs and prescriptions.</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oregon Criminal Background Check</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An Oregon criminal background check may be important for employers that want to ensure a safe workplace and may be required by law for certain types of industries, such as public safety and childcare. A criminal record search may show different types of information, including felony criminal convictions like aggravated assault, kidnapping, and theft. A criminal report may also include misdemeanor criminal convictions, such as disorderly conduct, public intoxication, trespassing, and vandalism.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>When conducting an Oregon criminal background check, employers must follow <a href=\"https://www.oregon.gov/boli/workers/Pages/hiring-discrimination.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oregon’s statewide ban-the-box law </a>as well as other federal, state, and local regulations when conducting and using criminal background checks for employment purposes.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oregon State Police Background Check</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https://www.oregon.gov/osp/programs/cjis/Pages/CCH.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oregon State Police background check</a> can be requested through the <a href=\"https://www.oregon.gov/osp/programs/cjis/pages/criminal-justice-information-services.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oregon State Police, Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS)</a>. When allowed by law, individuals can access their own criminal records through CJIS; third parties, such as employers, can also request records. When you request your own records, it results in a fingerprint-based search of the <a href=\"https://www.oregon.gov/osp/programs/cjis/Pages/CCH.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oregon Computerized Criminal History Repository</a>, however when requesting a candidate’s records, the search is only name-based.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Requesting someone else’s criminal record, such as an Oregon criminal background check, triggers a 14-day waiting period. During this time, the person in question is notified of the request and will have the chance to review the record for accuracy. When an employer requests this information as part of the hiring process, they are also required by Oregon law to give the candidate advance notice.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that Oregon State Police background checks only reveal information about Oregon criminal records. If you need to check a candidate’s criminal history in other states, you will have to conduct additional screenings. Oregon State Police background checks show convictions along with arrest records less than a year old for charges that were not acquitted or dismissed. On the report, you will see the arrest date, offense, arresting agency, court of origin, and disposition information.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oregon Drug Testing</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Oregon drug testing can help employers meet industry regulations and help maintain a safe workplace. Drug screening provides evidence of recent use of specific prescription and illicit drugs. Lab-based urine tests offer <a href=\"/resources/articles/10-panel-drug-test/\">multiple panel options</a> to screen for different types of substances.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drug testing may also be used when required by the federal government, such as <a href=\"/resources/articles/what-you-need-to-know-about-dot-background-checks/\">DOT background checks</a> for commercial drivers.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-long-does-a-background-check-take-in-oregon\">How Long Does A Background Check Take in Oregon?</h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"/blog/how-long-do-background-checks-take/\">Turnaround times</a> for Oregon background checks typically depend on the type and scope of the search and who is conducting the screening. For example, when employers conduct screenings on their own, criminal records in Oregon can take 14 days to process. Other types of public records may need to be requested online, over the phone, or in person which may require contacting courts, county clerks, and law enforcement agencies. Other types of records, such as employment verification and reference checks can also be time consuming when handled directly.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oregon employers looking for a more streamlined, efficient process often choose to work with a qualified CRA, like GoodHire, for pre-employment background checks. With access to many types of public records and databases, along with close relationships with courts across the US, GoodHire offers more accurate results and speeds background check turnaround times. Plus, GoodHire can help your organization stay compliant with federal, state, and local laws.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>GoodHire has access to many types of databases and public records, plus relationships with courthouses across the US — all of which help speed turnaround times (and return thorough results) for background checks.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-far-back-do-background-checks-go-in-oregon\">How Far Back Do Background Checks Go In Oregon?</h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"/resources/articles/how-far-back-do-background-checks-go/\">How far a background check</a> in Oregon can go varies depending on the type of check you’re conducting and the scope of the search. The lookback period may also be limited by federal, state, or local laws. While 7-year background checks are common in some states, Oregon doesn’t limit reporting of felony or misdemeanor convictions to seven years. However, arrest records obtained from the Oregon State Police background checks, may be limited to just one year.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, employers that work with a background check provider, like GoodHire, to conduct criminal background checks must comply with the <a href=\"/blog/what-employers-need-to-know-about-fcra-compliance/\">federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA</a>). According to the FCRA, arrests and non-convictions more than seven years old may not be reported on a criminal background check for employment.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FCRA also limits reporting of bankruptcies older than 10 years and civil suits, civil judgments, collection accounts, and paid tax liens beyond seven years. The FCRA seven-year restriction does not apply to candidates applying for positions that pay more than $75,000 per year.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>When verifying employment and education history, employers may go as far back as necessary.</p>\n\n\n<div class=\"Block u-align--left is-imageRight40 u-bgColor--babyBlue u-textColor--lightBlack FeaturedImageBlock\">\n\n  \n  <div

\n</div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"oregon-background-check-laws\">Oregon Background Check Laws</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Oregon employers conducting employment background checks must remain legally-compliant with all federal, state, and local laws. These laws include the federal FCRA, and ban-the-box and fair hiring laws designed to help protect job candidates from <a href=\"https://www.oregon.gov/boli/workers/Pages/hiring-discrimination.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">discrimination during the hiring process</a>, especially if information surfaces during an Oregon criminal background check.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Laws related to background checks can vary across Oregon’s different cities and counties. Employers that are unsure of Oregon background check laws may wish to comply with the strictest laws to avoid potential liability.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of Oregon’s key hiring laws related to background checks include:</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https://gov.oregonlive.com/bill/2015/HB3025/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ban-the-Box Law</a></h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In Oregon, all public and private employers must follow a ban-the-box law. Under this law, employers can only look into a candidate’s criminal history after the first interview for the job. If there is not an interview as part of the hiring process, the employers must wait until a conditional offer is made before running a background check. Certain counties and cities in Oregon also have their own ban-the-box laws.</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https://www.oregonlegislature.gov/bills_laws/ors/ors659a.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">O.R.S 659A.320</a></h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This Oregon law helps protect a candidate’s credit history. With only a few exceptions, employers are not legally permitted to obtain or use any information about a candidate’s credit history during the hiring process. If someone’s credit is “substantially job-related,” such as for positions that require access to sensitive financial information, an employer may be able to look into a candidate’s credit report. Other exceptions included public safety positions, jobs that require credit checks by law, and federally-insured banks or credit unions.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2022R1/Downloads/MeasureDocument/SB1514\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oregon Equal Pay Act</a></h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Under this statewide law, which helps protect candidates during the hiring process, Oregon employers are not permitted to ask a candidate about their salary history before making an offer. They also cannot seek this information from previous employers during employment verifications or reference checks. The law also does not allow employers to use past wages in order to determine compensation for the new role –&nbsp;even if the candidate shares information about previous salaries or wages with the employer.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/statutes/fair-credit-reporting-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)</a></h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When conducting a background check through a CRA, you must follow <a href=\"/blog/what-employers-need-to-know-about-fcra-compliance/\">federal FCRA </a>requirements. For example, employers must provide written disclosure to the candidate of your intent to do the background check. You are also required to get a candidate’s consent to the screening in writing and provide them with a <a href=\"/resources/articles/fcra-summary-of-rights/\">summary of rights</a>. In the event the candidate is not hired based on information that showed up in their background checks, employers must follow the <a href=\"/blog/what-does-adverse-action-mean/\">adverse action process</a>.&nbsp;</p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"county-resources\">County Resources</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the resources below to learn about ban-the-box laws and&nbsp; public records in some of Oregon’s largest counties:</p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clackamas County</h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a population of over 421,000 people, Clackamas County is the third-most populous county in Oregon.
