clean record
History without blemishes
A clean record is the absence of past offenses, violations, or misconduct in an official history.
Most often refers to criminal records: She was hired partly because of her clean record.
Also applies to driving histories, employment files, or disciplinary records.
Someone with a clean record has no documented transgressions—or none that show up in formal checks.
