Or. Admin. Code § 407-007-0200
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 11, November 1, 2024
Section 407-007-0200 - Purpose and Scope(1) The purpose of these rules, OAR 407-007-0200 to 407-007-0370, is to supplement OAR 125-007-0200 to 125-007-0330 with guidelines and requirements specific to background checks for Oregon Department of Human Services (Department or ODHS) and Oregon Health Authority (Authority) subject individuals (SIs). These rules provide for the reasonable screening under ORS 181A.195, 181A.200, 409.027, and 413.036 of SIs to determine if they have a history of specific criminal or abusive behavior identified in federal or state law or rules such that they should not be allowed to work, volunteer, be employed, reside, or otherwise perform in positions covered by these rules.(2) These rules apply to evaluating potentially disqualifying convictions and conditions of an SI when conducting fitness determinations based upon such information. The fact that an SI is approved does not guarantee employment or placement. These rules do not apply to individuals subject to OAR 407-007-0000 to 407-007-0100 (ODHS Employees, Volunteers, and Contractors) or 407-007-0400 to 407-007-0460 (Abuse Check Rules for Department Employees and Volunteers).(3) Providers for the Department and the Authority are subject to criminal records and abuse checks. The Authority authorizes the Department to act on its behalf in carrying out criminal and abuse checks associated with programs or activities administered by the Authority. References in these rules to the Department or Authority shall be construed to be references to either or both agencies.Or. Admin. Code § 407-007-0200
