A Community First Yorkshire event
Introduction to DBS products and services
Sometimes, completing a DBS application form can be a bit daunting. Do you understand the eligibility criteria, levels of checks and your organisation’s safeguarding responsibilities?
This short online introduction, delivered by the DBS Regional Outreach Adviser, looks at how DBS works, explains the barring process and outlines how to get support.
Topics covered during the session will include:
- the role of the Disclosure and Barring Service
- DBS checks and role eligibility, including levels of check and workforce
- how “regulated activity” with children and adults is defined and what this means in practice
- an organisation’s duties and responsibilities in regards to referring to the DBS
- the DBS barring process and the consequences of being placed on one or both barred lists
- how to get support from DBS.
The workshop will last approximately 1 hour with an opportunity to ask questions at the end.
