All applicants for employment may be required to submit to a drug and alcohol test after a
conditional offer of employment has been made. The results of the drug and alcohol tests will be
provided to the County. If you are currently using illegal drugs or controlled substances, you are
not eligible for employment. If you use illegal drugs or controlled substances after you have
been employed, you will be subject to disciplinary action or dismissal. This policy does not apply
to the use of medications which have been prescribed for an individual by a licensed medical
practitioner and which are used strictly in accordance with the prescription.

Criminal Background History
In connection with your employment application or your actual employment, Marshall County may obtain a
criminal background report about you for employment purposes. The information contained in such
criminal background reports may be used by Marshall County for employment purposes, such as hiring
you. If you are hired by the company, the information in a criminal background report and/or investigative

including felony filings, misdemeanor filings, and motor vehicle records, general reputation, personal
characteristics, or mode of living that is compiled through the use of personal interviews with references,
employers, neighbors, friends, associates, etc. You have a right to request disclosure of the nature and
scope of the reports.
I authorize Marshall County to obtain criminal background reports and/or investigative criminal background
reports for the pre-employment background investigation, and, if I am hired, at any time during my
employment. I understand that these reports might include, but are not limited to, a search of my criminal
background, reference checks, driving record checks, and verification of my identification and Social
Security Number. I agree that this disclosure/authorization, in original or copy form, is valid for all current
and future criminal background reports.
By signing below, I understand that Marshall County may use such criminal background reports for employment
purposes, including, but not limited to, hiring, promotion, retention, and termination.
