Accuracy of Information. I certify that the information in this application is correct to the best of my knowledge. I understand and agree that any false, misleading, or incomplete information given in my application, interview(s), or other pre-employment questionnaires and procedure, regardless of when discovered by the Anniston Housing Authority will be sufficient basis for my disqualification for employment, or, if already employed by the Anniston Housing Authority, the termination of my employment.

I agree that the Anniston Housing Authority shall not be liable in any respect if I am not hired or if my employment is terminated as a result of providing such false, misleading, or incomplete information.

Information Release. I authorize the Anniston Housing Authority to contact any company, institution, or individual it deems appropriate to investigate my education, employment history, character, qualifications, driving record, and other job-related information. I give my full consent for all contacted persons, including former employers, to provide the information concerning this application. Further, I waive my right to bring a claim against these individuals for any damages arising from furnishing the requested information to the Housing Authority. I also release the Housing Authority from all liability that might result from checking such references.

Employment Eligibility Verification. In accordance with the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act of 2011, I understand that all post-offer employment eligibility verifications are processed through the E-Verify Internet-Based System. I have received a copy of the “Notice of E-Verify Participation” and the “Right to Work” with this application.

Drug Testing and Fitness for Duty. The Anniston Housing Authority is a drug-free workplace. A post-offer drug test will be required and a physical examination may be required. I understand that, as allowed by the Americans with Disabilities Act, any offer of employment may be withdrawn if I test positive for drugs and/or if a condition is discovered which does not permit me to perform the essential functions of the job and for which no reasonable accommodation can be made.

Criminal Background Check. I understand Anniston Housing Authority requires and will conduct a criminal background check on all new employees prior to the first day of employment. “At-Will” Status. I understand Alabama is an “at will” state and that the Anniston Housing Authority is an “at will” employer. Any offer of employment does not constitute an employment contract. Employment may be terminated at any time by either party, with or without cause.

Application Status. I understand this application is currently for only 30 days. At the conclusion of this time, if I have not heard from the Anniston Housing Authority and still wish to be considered for employment, it will be necessary to complete a new application.
