CRIMINAL RECORDS CHECK AND FITNESS DETERMINATION RULES


125-007-0200
Statement of Purpose and Statutory Authority
(1) Purpose. These rules control the Department's acquisition of information about a subject individual's criminal history through criminal records checks or other means and its use of that information to determine whether the subject individual is fit to provide services to the Department as an employee, volunteer, contractor or vendor in a position covered by OAR 125-007-0220(2)(a)-(n). The fact that the Department approves a subject individual as fit does not guarantee the individual a position as a Department employee, volunteer, contractor or vendor.
(2) Authority. These rules are authorized under ORS 181.534, 184.340 and 184.365.

Criminal Records Check Process
(1) Disclosure of Information by Subject Individual.
(a) Preliminary to a criminal records check, a subject individual shall complete and sign the DAS Criminal Records Request form and, if requested by the Department, a fingerprint card. Both forms ask for identifying information, e.g., name, birth date, Social Security Number, physical characteristics, marital status, driver's license or identification card number and current address. The DAS Criminal Records Request form also asks for information about prior residences and for details concerning any circumstance listed in OAR 125-007-0240(3)(a)-(f).
(b) A subject individual shall complete and submit to the Department the DAS Criminal Records Request form and, if requested, a fingerprint card within three business days of receiving the forms. An authorized designee may extend the deadline for good cause.
(c) The Department shall receive a fingerprint card from a subject individual under the age of 18 years only if the subject individual also submits the written consent of a parent or guardian.
(d) Within a reasonable period of time as established by an authorized designee, a subject individual shall disclose additional information as requested by the Department in order to resolve an issue hindering the completion of a criminal records check, e.g., providing additional proof of identity.
(2) When a Criminal Records Check is conducted. An authorized designee may conduct, or request that the Oregon Department of State Police conduct, a criminal records check when:
(a) An individual meets the definition of "subject individual," but has not been approved under these rules, unless the individual was a Department employee serving in his or her current position prior to the effective date of these rules and that position does not involve authorized designee responsibilities;
(b) An individual employed by the Department meets the definition of "subject individual" because he or she is either moving to or applying for a position that meets the criteria of OAR 125-007-0220(2)(a)-(n), if:
(A) The Department has not conducted a fitness determination on the subject individual within the previous three years;
(B) The subject individual had been previously approved under OAR 125-007-0260(3)(b); or
(C) An authorized designee determines that the new position requires greater responsibility for functions covered by OAR 125-007-0220(2)(a)-(n) than the subject individual's prior position;
(c) An authorized designee has reason to believe that a subject individual committed a crime listed in OAR 125-007-0270 and either a fitness determination has not yet been done on the subject individual or the crime had not been identified in a prior fitness determination;
(d) An authorized designee has reason to believe that a factor relevant to a fitness determination listed in OAR 125-007-0260(2), not previously identified in a fitness determination, applies to a subject individual who had been previously approved under OAR 125-007-0260(3)(b);
(e) Required by federal law or regulation, by state law or administrative rule, or by contract or written agreement with the Department.
(3) Which Criminal Records Check(s) Is Conducted. When an authorized designee determines under subsection (2) of this rule that a criminal record check is needed, the authorized designee shall proceed as follows:
(a) LEDS Criminal Records Check. The authorized designee shall conduct a LEDS criminal records check as part of any fitness determination conducted in regard to a subject individual.
(b) Oregon Criminal Records Check. The authorized designee shall request that the Oregon Department of State Police conduct an Oregon criminal records check when:
(A) The authorized designee determines that an Oregon criminal records check is warranted after review of the information provided by the subject individual, the results of a LEDS criminal records check, or other criminal records information; or
(B) The authorized designee requests a nationwide criminal records check.
(c) Nationwide Criminal Records Check. The authorized designee shall request that the Oregon Department of State Police conduct a nationwide criminal records check when:
(A) A subject individual has lived outside Oregon for 60 or more consecutive days during the previous three (3) years;
(B) Information provided by the subject individual or the results of a LEDS or Oregon criminal records check provide reason to believe, as determined by an authorized designee, that the subject individual has a criminal history outside of Oregon;
(C) As determined by an authorized designee, there is reason to question the identity of or information provided by a subject individual because, e.g., the subject individual fails to disclose a Social Security Number, discloses a Social Security Number that appears to be invalid, or does not have an Oregon driver's license or identification card;
(D) A check is required by federal law or regulation, by state law or administrative rule, or by contract or written agreement with the Department;
(E) A subject individual is a DAS employee working in, moving to, or applying for a position within the State Data Center or Enterprise Security Office;
(F) The Department Director or Deputy Director seeks to serve as an authorized designee; or
(G) A subject individual is a DAS employee working in, moving to, or applying for a position within the Personnel Unit of the Department's Operations Division designated by the Department Director or the Director's designee as including the responsibilities of an authorized designee.

Final Fitness Determination
(1) An authorized designee shall make a fitness determination about a subject individual based on information provided by the subject individual under OAR 125-007-0230(1), the criminal records check(s) conducted, if any, and any false statements made by the subject individual.

To assist in considering these factors, the authorized designee may obtain other criminal records information from the subject individual or any other source, including law enforcement agencies or courts within or outside of Oregon. To acquire other criminal offender information from the subject individual, an authorized designee may request to meet with the subject individual, to receive written materials from him or her, or both. The authorized designee will use all collected information in considering:

(H) Whether the subject individual has been arrested for or charged with a crime listed under OAR 125-007-0270 within the last five years;

(O) The education and work history (paid or volunteer) of the subject individual since the commission or alleged commission of a crime.
(3) Possible Outcomes of a Final Fitness Determination
(a) Automatic Approval. An authorized designee shall approve a subject individual if the information described in sections (1) and (2) shows:
(A) No credible evidence that the subject individual has been convicted of, or found guilty except for insanity (or comparable disposition) of a crime listed in OAR 125-007-0270(1);
(B) No credible evidence that the subject individual had been convicted of, or found guilty except for insanity (or comparable disposition) of a crime listed in OAR 125-007-0270(2) within ten years of the date that the subject individual signed the DAS Criminal Records Request form;
(C) No credible evidence that the subject individual had been convicted of, or found guilty except for insanity (or comparable disposition) of a crime listed in OAR 125-007-0270(3) within five years of the date that the subject individual signed the DAS Criminal Records Request form;
(D) No credible evidence that the subject individual has a pending indictment for a crime listed in OAR 125-007-0270;
(E) No credible evidence of the subject individual having made a false statement; and
(F) No discrepancies between the criminal offender information, other criminal records information and information obtained from the subject individual.
(b) Evaluative Approval. If a fitness determination under this rule shows credible evidence of any of the factors identified in paragraphs (3)(a)(A)-(F) of this rule, an authorized designee may approve the subject individual only if, in evaluating the information described in sections (1) and (2), the authorized designee determines that the subject individual acting in the position for which the fitness determination is being conducted would not pose a risk of harm to the Department, its client entities, the State, or members of the public.
(c) Restricted Approval.
(A) If an authorized designee approves a subject individual under subsection (3)(b) of this rule, the authorized designee may restrict the approval to specific activities or locations.
(B) An authorized designee shall complete a new criminal records check and fitness determination on the subject individual prior to removing a restriction.
(d) Denial.
(A) If a fitness determination under this rule shows credible evidence of any of the factors identified in paragraphs (3)(a)(A)-(F) of this rule and, after evaluating the information described in sections (1) and (2) of this rule, an authorized designee concludes that the subject individual acting in the position for which the fitness determination is being conducted would pose a risk of harm to the Department, its client entities, the State, or members of the public, the authorized designee shall deny the subject individual as not fit for the position.
(B) Refusal to Consent. If a subject individual refuses to submit or consent to a criminal records check including fingerprint identification, the authorized designee shall deny the subject individual as not fit without further assessment under the fitness determination process.
(C) If a subject individual is denied as not fit, then the subject individual may not be employed by or provide services as a volunteer, contractor or vendor to the Department in a position covered by OAR 125-007-0220(2).
(4) Final Order. A completed final fitness determination becomes a final order of the Department unless the affected subject individual appeals by requesting either a contested case hearing as provided by OAR 125-007-0300(2)(a) or an alternative appeals process as provided by OAR 125-007-0300(6).

Appealing a Fitness Determination
(1) Purpose. This rule sets forth a contested case hearing process by which a subject individual may appeal a completed final fitness determination made under OAR 125-007-0260 that he or she is fit or not fit to hold a position with, or provide services to the Department as an employee, volunteer, contractor, or vendor. Section (6) of the rule identifies an alternative appeal process available only to current DAS employees.
(2) Process:
(a) A subject individual may appeal a fitness determination by submitting a written request for a contested case hearing to the address specified in the notice provided under OAR 125-007-290(1)(b), within 14 calendar days of the date appearing on the notice. The Department shall address a request received after expiration of the deadline as provided under OAR 137-003-0528.
(b) When a timely request is received by the Department under subsection (a), a contested case hearing shall be conducted by an administrative law judge assigned by the Office of Administrative Hearings, pursuant to the Attorney General's Uniform and Model Rules, "Procedural Rules, Office of Administrative Hearings" OAR 137-003-0501 to 137-003-0700, as supplemented by the provisions of this rule.
(c) The Department shall provide the subject individual or the subject individual's legal representative with all of the information required under OAR 137-003-0510 in writing before the hearing.
(d) As provided in OAR 137-003-0510(3), if participating in a contested case hearing, the Department and the subject individual may agree to use a collaborative method of dispute resolution designed to encourage them to work together to develop a mutually agreeable solution, such as negotiation or a settlement conference.
(3) Discovery
(a) A subject individual's hearing request under section (2)(a) of this rule shall constitute a discovery request for the following records:
(A) Any records the subject individual has a right to inspect under OAR 125-007-0310(2)(e); and
(B) In accordance with the Public Records Law, any records described in OAR 125-007-0310(3)(a).
(b) The Department or the administrative law judge may protect information made confidential by ORS 181.534(15) or other applicable law as provided in OAR 137-003-0570(7) or (8).
(4) No Public Attendance. Contested case hearings on fitness determinations are closed to non-participants.
(5) Proposed and Final Order:
(a) Proposed Order. After a hearing, the administrative law judge shall issue a proposed order. If the subject individual or subject individual's legal counsel does not file written exceptions with the Department within 14 calendar days after service of the proposed order, the proposed order shall become the final order.
(b) Exceptions. If the subject individual or the subject individual's legal counsel files timely written exceptions to the proposed order with the Department, the Department Director or the Director's designee shall consider the exceptions and serve a final order, or request a revised proposed order from the administrative law judge.
(c) Default. A completed final fitness determination made under OAR 125-007-260 shall constitute a final order without a hearing as provided under OAR 137-003-0672.
(6) Alternative Process. A subject individual currently employed by DAS may choose to appeal a fitness determination either under the process made available by this rule or through the process made available by applicable personnel rules, policies and collective bargaining provisions. A subject individual's decision to appeal a fitness determination through applicable personnel rules, policies, and collective bargaining provisions is an election of remedies as to the rights of the individual with respect to the fitness determination and is a waiver of the contested case process made available by this rule.
(7) Challenging Criminal Offender Information. A subject individual may not use the appeals process established by this rule to challenge the accuracy or completeness of information provided by the Oregon Department of State Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or agencies reporting information to the Oregon Department of State Police or the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
(a) To challenge information identified in this section (7), a subject individual may use any process made available by the providing agency.
(b) If the subject individual successfully challenges the accuracy or completeness of information provided by the Oregon Department of State Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or an agency reporting information to the Oregon Department of State Police or the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the subject individual may request that the Department conduct a new criminal records check and re-evaluate the original fitness determination made under OAR 125-007-0260 by submitting a new DAS Criminal Records Request form.
