Labor Compliance Notices
Background Checks
The University of Houston System is committed to promoting a safe and secure environment
at all of its component universities. The
Background Checks for Employees
policy (SAM 02.A.37) requires that all new hires pass a criminal background check.
This policy is applicable to all positions, including faculty and adjuncts, full and
part-time, permanent and temporary, as well as student employment in all university
programs, regardless of funding source.
Disclosure of a criminal offense will not automatically disqualify you from consideration
for employment, however, failure to truthfully disclose information will be considered
a falsification which will be a determining factor for disqualification. The nature
of the offense, date of offense, the surrounding circumstances, and relevance of the
offense to the position will be considered. Knowledge of an arrest in and of itself
is not necessarily used to disqualify an individual from employment.
Selective Service
Effective Sept. 1, 1999, all persons hired by an agency of the State of Texas who
are required by Federal Law to be registered with the Selective Service System must
present proof of registration or proof of exemption. This applies to all individuals
hired by University of Houston-Clear Lake.
Veterans/Military Employment Preference
In compliance with Texas State Senate Bill (S.B.) 805, University of Houston-Clear
Lake is committed to providing a preference in employment to eligible veteran, disabled
veteran, surviving spouse of veteran and orphan of veteran applicants who meet minimum
qualifications and any special qualifications for the position to which they apply.
The required preferences do not compel the University to appoint a veteran, disabled
veteran, surviving spouse of a veteran or orphan of a veteran. However, they do require
that those who meet the veteran preference eligibility be appointed when their application
assessment, combined with the veteran's preference, is equal to, or higher than that
of a non-veteran.
University of Houston-Clear Lake is committed to hiring military talent, knowing first-hand
that recruiting from the military community can lead to a strategic competitive advantage.
Please see the frequently asked questions form below for additional information.

Veteran's Preference: Frequently Asked Questions
E-Verify
All public universities in Texas are required to use the E-Verify system to validate
the identity and employment eligibility information for all employees including; faculty,
full-time and part-time staff, and temporary and student workers.
E -Verify is an Internet-based system operated by the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA). The E-Verify system
uses federal databases to rapidly validate individual identities and work eligibility
from the information gathered in the I-9 form. Federal regulations require organizations
that hold contracts with the federal government to use E-Verify to verify the employment
eligibility of their employees, regardless of citizenship.
After you have completed the I-9 form a member of the Human Resources staff will enter
your information in the E-Verify system. E-Verify compares the information to electronic
records maintained by the Social Security Administration and Department of Homeland
Security to confirm if the employee is authorized to work in the United States. That
process typically takes just a few seconds. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
statistics show that approximately 97 percent of employees run through E-Verify are
found to be work eligible.
If there is a data mismatch (Tentative Non-Confirmation) Human Resources will make
every effort to ensure there is no data-entry error on our end. If we cannot resolve
the error, you will be asked to come to Human Resources to review the information
that we used in E-Verify and give us newer documents or contest the E-Verify finding
by going to the appropriate government offices to correct the problem.
