05/01/2026 Background Checks

Kelly-Louise Poggetti, City of Palo Alto

Hi all,

The City's attorneys' office and I are updating our instructor requirements. Two topics came up - background checks and insurance. It would be helpful to know how other members have addressed this. Preliminary questions are below:


  1. Which department takes ownership of background checks?
  2. What is the trigger to request a background check?
  3. How often do you require background checks?


I appreciate the help.


Kelly
