We update this overview of ban-the-box rules often. But laws change quickly, and we cannot guarantee all information is current. Always consult your attorney for legal advice.
Guidance

STATE LAWS — PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR
Who must follow: This ban-the-box law applies to all employers doing business in or operating in Vermont.
Timing of inquiry: Employers in Vermont may only inquire into criminal history during an interview or once the prospective employee has been deemed “otherwise qualified” for the position.
Adverse action implications: None
