Requesting the criminal history of another individual is becoming something of a regular practice among certain employers and a lot of certification requirements. Under the terms of the Oregon Revised Statute Chapter 181 and Oregon Administrative Rules Chapter 257(http://www.oregon.gov/OSP/ID/docs/open_rec_another_individual.doc), Oregon criminal records can be obtained for an individual who has been convicted in the past or has an arrest record less than a year old. That is if there hasn't been a dismissal or acquittal associated with the arrest.

The individual being looked into must be notified within two weeks of the application for the criminal records of Oregon request. If the Oregon criminal records are at the request of an employer, then he or she must advise the applicant of the intent to obtain their criminal records in Oregon and supply the method of the advisement when submitting their request. If the person in question does not have a criminal offender record on file, then the inquirer will be told so and not be given any further information.
