We have a strict company policy that employees have an up-to-date enhanced CRB/DBS check, to ensure that all of our employees are of the highest quality.
The main role of the DBS/CRB check is to help employers make the correct and safest recruitment decisions by preventing unsuitable people from working with vulnerable groups. The DBS was established under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 and merges the functions previously carried out by the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA). Enhanced CRB Checks are needed to work in many industries now under new guidelines from the government.
