DESCRIPTION:Employers are getting intentional about second-chance hiring wh
	ich is leading to more diverse workforces\, increased productivity\, and a
	n answer to the post-pandemic labor shortage. A recent survey by SHRM rese
	archers reported that in 2021\, 66% of H.R. professionals were willing to 
	work with individuals who have criminal records\, up from 49 percent in 20
	18. The same study showed that 85% of H.R. professionals and 81 percent of
	 business leaders said that justice-involved employees perform just as wel
	l or better in their jobs than other workers. Join us for the next Region 
	of Choice best practices session as we explore the untapped potential of j
	ustice-involved talent in the workplace. We’ve partnered with MICAH to org
	anize a panel of human resource practitioners to shed light on the benefit
	s of hiring those who have a criminal record or have been formally incarce
	rated. This conversation will also address the often unspoken\, but very r
	eal concerns and misconceptions around hiring those who are justice-involv
	ed. Attend and learn about: • The crucial distinctions between traditional
	 hiring\, onboarding\, and retention processes vs. those tailored specific
	ally to justice-involved talent • How to create inclusive and supportive e
	nvironments that foster successful integration + growth • Milwaukee-based 
	employers and employees who have experienced the positive outcomes of effe
	ctive justice-involved hiring\, onboarding\, and talent retention practice
	s • The societal\, employee\, and organizational benefits of tapping into 
	the second-chance talent pool THE PANEL Attendees will hear from professio
	nals who specialize in working with justice-involved talent and employers.
