Jobs for Felons in Lexington Kentucky

While there are many jobs for felons in Lexington Kentucky, finding the right one can be challenging. Although felons have cleared their charges and paid their debt, many still find it difficult to reintegrate into society. 

However, many experts believe that the best way to help felons get back on their feet is by making them equal members of the community. In other words, by giving them jobs and making them accountable for their wellbeing.

Although there are limited job opportunities for felons, you can get a job easily with the right research and formal skills. Below are some jobs to consider when looking for jobs as a felon in Lexington.

Truck Driver

Whether you have driven before or not, we recommend brushing up on your driving skills. That is because there are many truck driver jobs for felons in Lexington. You also need to apply for Commercial Driver’s Licence (CDL) to apply for these positions.

Many companies in the area are looking for regional and seasonal truck drivers, so having a CDL can be very beneficial. These positions are also well suited for candidates looking for jobs that involve travel.

Customer Services Representative

How would you rate your people’s skills? If you aspire to work in the corporate arena, we recommend applying for one of Lexington’s many customer services jobs available for felons.

It is an excellent opportunity to build relationships and network with other people in the industry. However, customer service representative jobs require candidates to have strong communication and digital skills.

Trash Collector

Many ex-cons may not find working as a part-time night trash collector a glamorous position. However, it is still a great opportunity to start earning some money and building rapport with industry personnel.

You will also find that this position is relatively stress-free and requires a lot of time spent outdoors. If you are looking for a job with fewer one-on-one skills required, we recommend checking it out.

Additionally, most of these positions are part-time. That means it is easy side money while you continue searching for a more permanent role.
