Extra Edition: On Entrepreneurs with Disabilities and Workers with Criminal Records.

The federal SBA is celebrating National Disability Employment Awareness Month recognizing how entrepreneurs with disabilities have used federal financial assistance to change their business strategy, overcome challenges, and rebuild and encourage the hiring of employees with disabilities. In another topic, California announced a new effort to identify and correct violations of a pioneering state law that seeks to reduce barriers to employment for individuals with criminal records. A state agency is using technology to conduct mass searches for online job postings that use expressions that violate the Fair Opportunity Act. How is the state helping employers to comply with the law?
