The University of California is committed to creating and
maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application,
and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through
academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in
University programs and activities can work and learn together in a
safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying
and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or
intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to
addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted
employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or
other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of
appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted
employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists'
current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have
been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the
University's Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process,
UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions
to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled "Authorization to
Release Information" into RECRUIT as part of their application. If
the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release
information with the application materials, the application will be
considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the
application will not receive further consideration. Although all
applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire
application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or
other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered
for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted
employment reference checks.
