Our concern is for the lack of standardization or clear definition of "character, ability and fitness for employment".  Even with a signed release by a prospective employee, without adequate documentation of any performance issues that may fall under those areas of concern, the employer would be at increased liability to offer such an impression.

Certainly employees with founded allegations of abuse, neglect or exploitation, or grievous performance issues, should not be able to transfer from one provider to another.  However, could not the CHRIS system provide a mechanism for this information?
