San Diego's New Fair Chance Ordinance
Briefly

Effective October 10, 2024, the San Diego County Fair Chance Ordinance prohibits inquiries about arrest and conviction histories before a job offer is made.
The SDFCO mandates protections for employment applicants whose job location is within unincorporated areas of San Diego, emphasizing the importance of fair hiring practices.
Alongside the California Fair Chance Act, the SDFCO requires employers to evaluate an applicant's criminal history only after a conditional job offer is extended.
The laws focus on reducing discrimination against individuals with criminal records, requiring employers to conduct individualized assessments of conviction histories after job offers.
