The University strives to maintain a safe and secure campus environment for its students and employees and to protect the University's property. In order to advance this goal, the University has established a policy to conduct background checks as a condition of employment for all newly hired employees, as well as those promoted, reclassified, or reassigned to certain sensitive positions.

As a condition of employment, Bethel University and Bethel University Foundation (“the University”) will conduct background checks on all job candidates who have accepted a contingent offer of employment. The University may use a third-party agent or vendor to conduct background checks. The type of information that may be collected by or on behalf of the University includes, but is not limited to, a criminal background check, verification of educational credentials, employment history, credit report, and professional and personal references.

The University reserves the right in its sole discretion, to consider the significance of information received and the application of any employment decisions arising out of the results of the background check.

The University may require contractors who routinely perform work on campus to be in compliance with this policy.

Employees who have left Bethel and return more than a year after leaving, may be subject to a new background check.
