Description
The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) has a policy in place for contractor background investigations. The policy requires all contract employees to authorize DTMB to conduct a background investigation at the time of hire. The level and extent of the background investigation will depend on the candidate's position and security risk profile. The policy also outlines the factors that will be considered when deciding whether to hire or keep a contractor who has been convicted of a crime.
• The policy applies to all contract employees hired through the State's contracted IT Staffing Provider.
• Background investigations will be conducted by the DTMB Office of Infrastructure Protection (OIP) in compliance with applicable laws.
• Contractors must disclose any felony or misdemeanor court convictions, felony arraignments, or restrictions on their driving privileges.
• The policy is intended to ensure the integrity of the state's infrastructure and systems.
