There is no one federal law that specifically addresses employment applications, although there are record retention guidelines under a variety of federal laws (see the Recordkeeping topic) and non-discrimination provisions for hiring in general (see the Discrimination topic).
Colorado law makes it unlawful for an employer to use any form of employment application which expresses discrimination in regard to race, creed, disability, color, sex, age, national origin or ancestry unless based on a bona fide occupational qualification or required by a government agency for security reasons.
