Bank's Ethics Rules and Drug Testing

As a condition of employment, Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland employees must comply with the Bank's ethics rules which generally prohibit employees, their spouses/domestic partners, and minor children from owning or controlling, directly or indirectly, any debt or equity interest in a depository institution or an affiliate of a depository institution. A "depository institution" means a bank, a trust company, or any institution that accepts deposits, including a bank chartered under the laws of a foreign country. In addition, employees (and their spouses/domestic partners, and minor children) may not own shares of mutual funds, unit investment trusts or ETFs that have a policy, as stated in the prospectus, of concentrating in the financial services industry and that have underlying investments in banks or other depository institutions. If you or your spouse/domestic partner or minor child own such securities and would not be willing or able to divest them if you accepted an offer of Bank employment, you should raise this issue with the recruiter for this posting.

In addition, as a condition of employment, candidates must undergo a background check and will be tested for all controlled substances prohibited by federal law, to include marijuana, prior to hire and for certain safety sensitive positions during employment.
