FedEx Office will consider for employment all qualified applicants, including those with criminal histories, in a manner consistent with the requirements of applicable state and local laws, including the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, the City of Los Angeles’ Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance, and the New York City Fair Chance Act. The existence of a criminal record is not an automatic or absolute bar to employment and a candidate’s criminal record will be considered individually based on factors such as the relationship between the job sought and the criminal offense, the timing of the offense, the nature of the offense, and any other relevant information.

For the purposes of this article, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
- "Public agency" means the state or any local subdivision thereof, or any state or local department, agency, board or commission.
- "Private employer" means any person, company, corporation, labor organization or association which employs ten or more persons.
- "Direct relationship" means that the nature of criminal conduct for which the person was convicted has a direct bearing on his fitness or ability to perform one or more of the duties or responsibilities necessarily related to the license, opportunity, or job in question.
- "License" means any certificate, license, permit or grant of permission required by the laws of this state, its political subdivisions or instrumentalities as a condition for the lawful practice of any occupation, employment, trade, vocation, business, or profession. Provided, however, that "license" shall not, for the purposes of this article, include any license or permit to own, possess, carry, or fire any explosive, pistol, handgun, rifle, shotgun, or other firearm.
- "Employment" means any occupation, vocation or employment, or any form of vocational or
educational training. Provided, however, that "employment" shall not, for the purposes of this
article, include membership in any law enforcement agency.
§751. Applicability.
The provisions of this article shall apply to any application by any person for a license or employment at any public or private employer, who has previously been convicted of one or more criminal offenses in this state or in any other jurisdiction, and to any license or employment held by any person whose conviction of one or more criminal offenses in this state or in any other jurisdiction preceded such employment or granting of a license, except where a mandatory forfeiture, disability or bar to employment is imposed by law, and has not been removed by an executive pardon, certificate of relief from disabilities or certificate of good conduct. Nothing in this article shall be construed to affect any right an employer may have with respect to an intentional misrepresentation in connection with an application for employment made by a prospective employee or previously made by a current employee.
§752. Unfair discrimination against persons previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses prohibited.
No application for any license or employment, and no employment or license held by an individual, to which the provisions of this article are applicable, shall be denied or acted upon adversely by reason of the individual's having been previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses, or by reason of a finding of lack of "good moral character" when such finding is based upon the fact that the individual has previously been convicted of one or more criminal offenses, unless:
- There is a direct relationship between one or more of the previous criminal offenses and the specific license or employment sought or held by the individual; or
- the issuance or continuation of the license or the granting or continuation of the employment would involve an unreasonable risk to property or to the safety or welfare of specific individuals or the general public.
§753. Factors to be considered concerning a previous criminal conviction; presumption.
(1) In making a determination pursuant to section seven hundred fifty-two of this chapter, the public agency or private employer shall consider the following factors:
- The public policy of this state, as expressed in this act, to encourage the licensure and employment of persons previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses.
- The specific duties and responsibilities necessarily related to the license or employment sought or held by the person.
- The bearing, if any, the criminal offense or offenses for which the person was previously convicted will have on his fitness or ability to perform one or more such duties or responsibilities.
- The time which has elapsed since the occurrence of the criminal offense or offenses.
- The age of the person at the time of occurrence of the criminal offense or offenses.
- The seriousness of the offense or offenses.
- Any information produced by the person, or produced on his behalf, in regard to his rehabilitation and good conduct.
- The legitimate interest of the public agency or private employer in protecting property, and the safety and welfare of specific individuals or the general public.
(2) In making a determination pursuant to section seven hundred fifty-two of this chapter, the public agency or private employer shall also give consideration to a certificate of relief from disabilities or a certificate of good conduct issued to the applicant, which certificate shall create a presumption of rehabilitation in regard to the offense or offenses specified therein.
§754. Written statement upon denial of license or employment.
At the request of any person previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses who has been denied a license or employment, a public agency or private employer shall provide, within thirty days of a request, a written statement setting forth the reasons for such denial.
§755. Enforcement.
- In relation to actions by public agencies, the provisions of this article shall be enforceable by a proceeding brought pursuant to article seventy-eight of the civil practice law and rules.
- In relation to actions by private employers, the provisions of this article shall be enforceable by the division of human rights pursuant to the powers and procedures set forth in article fifteen of the executive law, and, concurrently, by the New York city commission on human rights.
Applying for employment or otherwise interacting with FedEx Office’s website does not create a contract for employment nor does it guarantee employment with FedEx Office.
Terms and Conditions
I certify that the answers given to the questions and the statements made on this application (including my resume and other documentation I submit) and in the hiring process are true. I understand that a false statement, a false answer, an omission, or a misleading statement may result in a decision not to hire me, the withdrawal of any offer of employment, or the termination of my employment with FedEx Office regardless of when such false, misleading, or erroneous information is discovered. I further understand that applying for employment or otherwise interacting with FedEx Office’s website does not create a contract for employment nor does it guarantee employment with FedEx Office; it is a preliminary step to employment. It does not obligate FedEx Office to offer employment to me, or for me to accept employment.
I understand that, if hired, my employment relationship with FedEx Office is “at-will,” which means that employment is not for any specified time period and may be terminated at any time by either FedEx Office or myself, with or without cause and with or without advance notice. FedEx Office also reserves the right to demote, transfer, or re-assign me or otherwise change any terms or conditions of my employment (except the FedEx Office Mutual Arbitration Agreement) with or without cause and with or without advance notice. The at-will nature of my employment relationship may only be changed by a legally-binding, written agreement covering employment status that is signed by the FedEx Office representative with actual and express authority to enter into such an agreement and will not be affected by oral comments from any FedEx Office team member or agent, an alleged oral agreement, or an alleged written agreement that does not meet the requirements above.
I authorize FedEx Office or its agents to investigate my references
and communicate with my former employers concerning my employment (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) unless specifically stated otherwise in this application. I authorize all
individuals, schools, and employers named, and all financial institutions, law enforcement agencies,
and all persons except as specifically limited on this application to provide information requested
about me, and I promise I will not bring any legal claims or actions against my current or former
employers due to their responses to any job reference request. If I have ever worked for a
subsidiary or affiliate of FedEx Corporation (including but not limited to FedEx Corp, FedEx
Express, FedEx Custom Critical, FedEx Services, FedEx Ground, FedEx Freight, FedEx Trade Networks,
FedEx Office, FedEx Kinko's and/or Kinko's) I understand that the FedEx family of Companies shares
employment information. However, the Companies do not share any employment information (including
medical information) that is otherwise prohibited or limited from being shared by law. By completing
and submitting this employment application, I authorize my former FedEx employer to share
appropriate information.
