Does Island Holdings hire felons?

Question

Zippia Team · Accepted Answer

No, Island Holdings does not hire felons. Island Holdings is not a Ban the Box company, nor does its hiring process emphasize the potential to hire people with a felony on their record. Additionally, they perform background checks before employment.

If a person does decide to apply and interview at Island Holdings with a prior felony, it will be important to discuss this early in the hiring process. In some circumstances, decided on a case-by-case basis, it is possible to be hired with a felony.

This will be determined by the felony, length of time since the felony, and the type of role that is being hired for. If Island Holdings decides that hiring a person with a former felony does not put the business at any adverse risk, they may decide to hire them.
