Effective January 1, 2025, the University of California, Davis, will comply with Senate Bill 791 and Assembly Bill 810.

Recent California legislation (SB 791 and AB 810) requires misconduct disclosures, and in some cases outreach to prior employers, when considering candidates for vacant academic appointments. This legislation and its implementation by the University of California aims to improve the climate and safety of all UC campuses.

To comply with these laws:

• All candidates will receive the required job ad posting language (see below) either in the ad posting itself, or sent directly to candidates not going through an open recruitment.
• All academic applicants will be required to sign an "Authorization of Release" form.
• All final candidates will be required to complete the Employee Disclosure Questionnaire.
