> A 2020 study by economists Jennifer L. Doleac and Benjamin Hansen found that Ban the Box increased employer discrimination against young, low-skilled black men. The authors argue that when employers are unable to check job applicants' criminal records early in the hiring process, they instead resort to statistical discrimination against groups that include more ex-offenders.[35] A 2020 study by economist Evan K. Rose found that Ban the Box had negligible effects on ex-offenders' labor market outcomes.[36] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ban_the_Box#:~:text=Ban%20the%20box%20can%20put%20businesses%20in%20a,who%20goes%20on%20to%20reoffend%20at%20the%20job https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ban_the_Box#:~:text=Ban%20th....
