Kan. Admin. Regs. § 21-30-10 - Employment agencies and employment services
(a) An
employment service, including private employment agencies, and state employment
agencies, as defined in K.S.A. 44-1002(e), shall not make applicant or
employee appraisals or referrals based on the results obtained from any
psychological test or other selection standard not validated in accordance with
these guidelines.
(b) An
employment agency or service which is requested by an employer or union to
devise a testing program is required to follow the standards for test
validation as set forth in these guidelines. An employment service is not
relieved of its obligation herein because the test user did not request such
validation or has requested the use of some lesser standard than is provided in
these guidelines.
(c) Where an
employment agency or service is requested only to administer a testing program
which has been elsewhere devised, the employment agency or service shall
request evidence of validation, as described in the guidelines in this part,
before it administers the testing program and/or makes referral pursuant to the
test results. The employment agency must furnish on request such evidence of
validation. An employment agency or service will be expected to refuse to
administer a test where the employer or union does not supply satisfactory
evidence of validation. Reliance by the user on the reputation of the test, its
author, or the name of the test shall not be deemed sufficient evidence of
validity [see 21-30-8 (a)]. An employment agency or service may administer a
testing program where the evidence of validity comports with the standards
provided in 21-30-7.
