I take exception to "require". Where will it end? For that matter, where will it start?
Daycare center operator is "required" to do BG checks on employees. It goes without saying that the operator would have to undergo a BG check before being allowed to have the daycare center (and that doesn't even account for the in-home type with 5 kids or less that typically aren't licensed at all). Then there's the plumber who comes to fix the sink. Better require all plumbers to have BG checks, because you never know when one might have to take a service call at a daycare center. Ditto electricians, HVAC contractors, painters, lawn maintenance, etc. Better include building and remodeling contractors in there. A devious one may plant wireless pinhole cameras in the walls of the new addition.
What next? Children's clothing stores, toy stores, arcades, heck, even the grocery store sells toys and has kids running everywhere.
I guess we might as well require every business owner of any kind to undergo a criminal background check prior to allowing them to have a business. Then we require them to have any prospective employee checked out as well. And since it's a regulatory move to protect children, there will be no problem making it retroactive to about 1932.
The only thing left is....who checks out the people doing the background checks??????

Better to require places like daycare centers to be licensed by the state and to carry liability insurance. Then pass legislation allowing parents to sue the operator for negligence (which the required insurance will have to pay the judgements). You can bet the insurance companies will mandate checks, or revoke coverage. No coverage, no license. No doubt they will also require the operators to use only licensed and bonded tradespeople for repairs.
All of this will cause the operator to raise their rates. But hey, what price for a child's innocence?

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.
