Colorado Employers: Now is the time to review job applications for any required legal updates. Earlier this year, the Job Application Fairness Act was enacted in Colorado and prohibits employers from inquiring about a job candidate’s age, date of birth, and dates of attendance at or date of graduation from an educational institution on an initial employment application.
Age verification is permitted if required by a bona fide occupational qualification pertaining to public or occupational safety or applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations.
