The Federal Bonding Program is a hiring incentive that provides employers $5,000 of Fidelity Bond insurance for a six-month period at no cost and no deductible for at-risk job seekers. After six months, employers can buy additional bonding if the worker has demonstrated job honesty. This bonding service offers employers a unique job placement tool to assist ex-offenders and other at-risk/hard-to-place job applicants including, but not limited to:
When an employer makes a job offer to an ex-offender, at-risk, or hard-to-place job applicant and the job is accepted, the employer must send a letter to the DES Federal Bonding Coordinator that confirms the worker’s identity, offer of employment, job title, work location, start date, salary, and hours of work per week. This letter must be emailed to [email protected].
