Sex Offender Registry
As an Add-On service to the County Criminal Record Search, the Sex Offender Registry Search is recommended for all applicants who, during the course of their workday, will come into contact with children and/or vulnerable adults (i.e. disabled, elderly etc.).
Clarifacts searches a nationwide database consisting of state sex offender registry data extracted from all 50 States and the District of Columbia. It should be noted that the nature and level of offenses, frequency of updates and the amount of detail included in each registry will vary by state. The sex offender search report generally includes: type of offense, prosecuting jurisdiction or state and physical description of the offender.
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), any information found in the Sex Offender Registry Search that may be used to make an adverse hiring decision must be confirmed at the original jurisdiction. Therefore, if the search indicates a “hit” or possible record within the past 7 years, Clarifacts will perform a county level criminal background check in that jurisdiction to verify the accuracy of the information within the report.
To help ensure all Clarifacts clients remain legally compliant in their background screening efforts, this supplementary county level criminal search is conducted at no additional cost*, but rather is included in the Sex Offender Registry Search price.
* County court access fees may apply
