This item will show under the following categories: Volunteering Governance
If your organisation has volunteers or staff in a regulated role, there is a legal requirement to ensure everyone in those roles is appropriately PVG checked.
Other disclosure options are available for those who are not in regulated roles, whilst these are not a legal requirement they can be used as part of an appropriate recruitment process.
Understanding which disclosure to access and when can assist your organisation in ensuring that staff/volunteers are suitable for their roles.
This learning byte provides information on:
- Why Disclosure checking matters.
- The criteria for accessing a Level 1 check.
- An overview of how to access a Level 2 check.
- An overview of how to access a Level 2 with a barred list check.
- When to access a PVG check.
- The information that is released on the different disclosure result levels.
