Eaton believes that an individual's past does not define them.

We’re deeply committed to second chance employment, focusing on removing barriers to employment and advancement for individuals with prior convictions. Eaton considers all candidates based on their skills and experience. Our background screening process is conducted only after a conditional offer of employment is extended. This background screening includes an interactive discussion with the candidate which ensures that any candidates with prior convictions can successfully advance though the hiring process. Our approach is a direct reflection of Eaton’s dedication to creating an inclusive environment where all candidates and employees can be their best!

Eaton is also a founding member of the Second Chance Business Coalition (SCBC), a diverse group of companies committed to expanding second chance employment practices. Co-chaired by Eaton’s CEO, Craig Arnold, the coalition includes over 45 of the nation’s largest employers. Eaton’s leadership in this space highlights our commitment to supporting strength and wellbeing of communities by providing opportunities for individuals to rejoin the workforce and achieve long-term success.
