Establishing procedures and requirements for the secretary of corrections to issue a certificate of employability to certain inmates.

Summary

The bill directs the secretary of corrections to identify inmates who have completed education or vocational training, have no recent major disciplinary violations, and pass a job‑skills test, then issue them a certificate of employability. The certificate could be used as a defense in negligent‑hiring lawsuits and would be revoked if the former inmate is later convicted of a felony. The measure also sets reporting requirements and protects the secretary from liability.
