I have applied for a job with a company and have completed all the employment requirements; the interviews, drug screening, and paperwork. The employer's personnel office contacted me and requested my court documents and police report concerning a SIS misdemeanor charge from two years ago. The job description I was given when I applied said that I would not be hired if I had a prior conviction for things like stealing, theft, robbery, etc. The misdemeanor charge I have is for endangering the welfare of a child. I went to the court house and received a copy of my court documents showing the court details and that I successfully completed my two year probabtion sentence. I gave this information to the employer and I am now being asked to get the police report for my crime. I was told at the court house that my police report is confidential and I would prefer it to stay that way. Does the employer have the right to request and receive this information to determine if they want to hire me?
