Employment Requirements
Before employees and volunteers can begin to work for the district they must complete the following requirements:
TB Test
All employees and volunteers must provide the district with a negative tuberculosis test result from a test taken within the past 90 days.
TB tests may be taken at the Champaign-Urbana Public Health Clinic, 201 W. Kenyon Rd., Champaign, IL, (217) 239-7827 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. on a walk-in-basis. You must return two days later to the C-U Public Health Clinic so that the results can be read. There is a $5 fee if you live in Champaign County and a $10 fee if you live outside the county. TB tests also are accepted from your doctor or clinic.
Criminal Background Check
A fingerprint scan for a criminal background check must be conducted before employees can begin work. Employees are hired pending the results of the background check. Volunteers also must undergo a non-fingerprinted criminal background check. Click here for a list of convictions which automatically exclude an employee or volunteer from work at the district.
Bloodborne Pathogen Orientation
All employees and volunteers must attend a presentation on bloodborne pathogen safety. All returning employees also are required to attend a yearly refresher presentation.
