Arrest Record Discrimination Includes Protections for Records of Civil Forfeitures
Municipal Law Newsletter | 06.05.25
Employers are significantly restricted under the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act in how they may use an individual’s “arrest record” to make an employment decision. Recently, in Oconomowoc Area School District v. Cota, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that arrest record discrimination covers arrest records related to non-criminal as well as criminal offenses.
