Call for Volunteers: Fair Chance Hiring Task Force

The CAS has been invited to send actuaries to participate in a project aimed at reducing barriers to employment for people who were formerly incarcerated.

The project hopes to identify potential ways that commercial insurance products such as Employee Dishonesty Coverage and Public Fidelity Bonds/ Federal Bonding Program, can be used, improved, or supplemented to encourage more "fair chance hiring." The foundation running the project is hosting an in-person meeting in New York City in June 2024 to discuss this further.

Actuaries with work experience related to the coverages mentioned above (or other similar coverages), are encouraged to participate. While we are seeking 1-2 actuaries who may be able to join the June meeting, there may be other opportunities to share your expertise and ideas virtually, as well.

If you are interested, please email Mallika Bender.
