Position requirements are the requirements that a holder of a particular rank position has to meet. Employers impose some requirements; the others may be imposed by law, government authority, or contracts.
Requirements may vary widely. They may involve third-party credentials.
For instance, some government jobs may require security clearances. In the United States, the clearance is an official determination that an individual may access information classified by the United States Federal Government. Security clearances are hierarchical; each level grants the holder access to information in that level and the levels below it. They are complex; several agencies such as FBI conduct separate checks.
In the United States, background checks shall comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act; that particularly means that the candidates must grant their consent on those checks. The employer, or independent professional investigation firms that the employer has hired to conduct those checks, must provide the candidate with the information they obtain as the result of the checks.
Some background checks are conducted once, at the time of hiring; the others may be conducted periodically.
The federal law requires criminal background checks for positions associated with the handling of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, animals, or working with children.
A driver license could be required if the employee needs to drive a vehicle. A commercial driver license (CDL) may be required if the employee is supposed to drive special types of vehicles.
Other requirements may include drug tests, driving records, employment physicals, particular vaccinations, and so on.
