Article 23-A - (Correction) LICENSURE AND EMPLOYMENT OF PERSONS PREVIOUSLY CONVICTED OF ONE OR MORE CRIMINAL OFFENSES
752 - Unfair discrimination against persons previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses prohibited.

  752.  Unfair discrimination against persons previously convicted of
  one or more criminal offenses prohibited. No application for any license
  or employment, and no employment or license held by  an  individual,  to
  which  the provisions of this article are applicable, shall be denied or
  acted  upon  adversely  by  reason  of  the  individual's  having   been
  previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses, or by reason of a
  finding  of  lack  of  "good moral character" when such finding is based
  upon the fact that the individual has previously been convicted  of  one
  or more criminal offenses, unless:
(1) there is a direct relationship between one or more of the previous
  criminal  offenses and the specific license or employment sought or held
  by the individual; or
(2) the issuance or continuation of the license  or  the  granting  or
  continuation  of  the  employment  would involve an unreasonable risk to
  property or to the safety or welfare  of  specific  individuals  or  the
  general public.
