Sex Offender Job Restrictions

This article is to address sex offenders job restrictions put forth by parole or probation officers.

Sex offenders often find themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place. Their PO wants them to gain employment, but does not feel comfortable letting them leave the house to fill out applications. This coupled with the internet restrictions makes it near impossible to gain any employment. Some sex offenders give up but others have found ways to earn the trust of their PO.

When a sex offender wants to be able to find a job they need to be able to actually go out and look for one. If you are finding yourself in a position where you are not allowed to leave the house to look for work then we have ways to help you get out of your house with your parole agents approval. First you will want to talk to your sex offender therapist. If you are on parole or probation you will most likely have one. Tell him what your problem is and ask him how you can fix this. Together you can come up with a plan that will be documented and well thought out. This plan will go over everything that can go wrong and how you plan to not offended while you are let out of your house. Simply saying that you won’t do it is not good enough. You have to come up with a plan that will help your agent know that you have a way out of every scenario. Say your crime is having sex with underage girls. There is one that you find attractive coming your way. She gives you a look like she is interested. What are you going to do? Are you going to turn around and walk the other way? These are the things your PO needs to know. They need to see that you have a backup plan and will implement it. Next get your back up plan approved by your therapist and have him contact your parole agent. Together they can come to a solution for you. It may only be 5 extra hours a week but it’s a start.

If you have a restriction involving computers and the internet you could use this same technique to be able to use them at government funded temp agencies. This is where you may apply online to places and build your resume. All of which will really help in finding employment.

Now doing this will not guarantee anything however it will give you a better chance than you had before.

If this article has helped you out in anyway please share this on your social media accounts or email it to other sex offenders that you may know. Together we can put an end to sex offender unemployment.

      Where do you live??? Operating a private pit bull and animal rescue in the Whittier area, I am always on the lookout for fresh blood with a good, strong back capable of doing some heavy duty lifting (up to 60 plus pounds at any given time).

    This is very true. One day you could be a free man, the next your in jail for flirting with a girl online. People are considered SOs in some states for urinating outside. They receive a Sexual charge of Indecent Exposure and BAM. Hello SO status. Its unprotected, Humiliating, and hard to survive with these kind of charges. I hope we become a protected class. If i want to wash dishes for a living why should i be denied because im a SO?

    I understand the crimes are Horrible. But not all SOs are Rapists and Child Molesters. Even then there are no safeguards for us. Only for the scared public that we will hurt someone. What about all the drug dealers and Murderers? Why are they looked at in a more positive manor? Do people even realize These things?

    No they do not. They all live in fear of the very world they live in. Well people of the world. MAN UP and quit whining.

    For the past twenty-five plus years, I have been hiring registered sex offenders to work at the private pit bull and animal rescue, and even though we aren’t exactly popular among the public we are the only facility in the area willing to help sex offenders get back onto their feet again.

    Don’t come to Arizona because if you’re not a sex offender you will become one.

    Hey guys Im on the list and I have a silly idea, or it may not be so silly
    I think we need to link together and start a crazy movement to stop discrimination. It isnt working with the government. Lets start doing it with a list. It will make life a little bit confusing and we may have to go an extra mile or two to get gas. But instead of supporting the people who will not give us a job. We should only support companies that will actually employ sex offenders. I understand the crimes are bad but people have to work. I propose that 800000 sex offenders make a list, accurate list not just because someone wouldn’t hire you but you were actually discriminated against. when we all link up and take our families and friends and our business away from these bigots. They may change they’re minds. please if interested in helping please email me [email protected]
