Limiting liability of employers for persons whose criminal records are expunged

This bill (SB 35) limits employer liability when an employee's criminal record for drug addiction-related offenses or diseases is expunged. It requires the state to create a database tracking these expungements and mandates courts to check this database in cases involving such employees. Employers are not required to provide health insurance or cover health care costs related to drug addiction or addiction-related diseases if the employee's record was expunged. The law specifically applies to employees participating in "return to work initiatives" for recovering addicts and does not affect employers' obligations for non-addiction-related issues.
