    Introduction

    As an organisation using the Disclosure and Barring Service’s (DBS) checking service to assess applicants’ suitability for positions of trust, we comply fully with the Code of Practice and undertake to treat all applicants for positions fairly. We undertake not to discriminate unfairly against any subject of a DBS check on the basis of a conviction or other information revealed.

    We are committed to the fair treatment of our employees, potential employees and users of our services, regardless of their offending background.

    Policy

    We actively promote equality of opportunity for all with the right mix of talent, skills, and potential and welcome applications from a wide range of candidates, including those with criminal records.  We select all candidates for interview based on their skills, qualifications, and experience.

    A DBS check is only requested after a thorough risk assessment has indicated that one is both proportionate and relevant to the position concerned.  For those positions where a DBS check is required, on all application forms and recruitment briefs it will be made clear that a DBS check will be requested in the event of the individual being offered the position.

    Where a DBS check is to form part of the recruitment process, we encourage all applicants called for interview to provide details of their criminal record at an early stage in the application process.  We request that this information is sent under separate, confidential cover, to a designated person within the organisation and we guarantee that this information will only be seen by those who need to see it as part of the recruitment process.

    Unless the nature of the position allows us to ask questions about your entire criminal record, we only ask about ‘unspent’ convictions as defined in the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. For those working directly with our clients, including Professional Carers, we require an Enhanced DBS check which will reveal 'spent' convictions.

    We ensure that all those who are involved in the recruitment process have been suitably trained to identify and assess the relevance and circumstances of offences.  We also ensure that they have received appropriate guidance and training in the relevant legislation relating to the employment of ex-offenders, e.g. the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, and in the secure handling of “sensitive personal data” for DBS checks.

    At interview, or in a separate discussion, we ensure that an open and measured discussion takes place on the subject of any offences or other matter that might be relevant to the position.  Failure to reveal information that is directly relevant to the position sought could lead to withdrawal of an offer of employment.

    This policy document is made available to all DBS applicants at the outset of the recruitment process and we make every subject of a DBS check aware of the existence of our DBS Policy and Procedure and make a copy available on request.

    We undertake to discuss any matter revealed in a DBS check with the person seeking the position before withdrawing a conditional offer of employment.
