What is Level 2 Background Screening?
Level 2 background screening is Florida’s highest level of background check. It is required by Section 435.04, Florida Statues for individuals working in positions of responsibility or trust.
A Level 2 background screening includes:
– Fingerprinting through an Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) approved Livescan provider
– State and national criminal history checks (Florida Department of Law Enforcement and Federal Bureau of Investigation database)
– Review for disqualifying offenses that would make someone not eligible for employment
– Eligibility determination is made by the responsible agency
Level 2 screening helps ensure that people who care for children, seniors, and vulnerable populations are safe and trustworthy.
