Only volunteers who fulfil certain criteria will be eligible for a DBS Check. Firstly, the individual must fit the definition of a ‘volunteer’. The Police Act 1997 (Criminal Records) Regulations 2002 defines a volunteer as ‘any individual engaged in an activity which involves spending time, unpaid (except for travel and other approved out of pocket expenses), doing something which aims to benefit some third party and not a close relative’. The individual must also meet the eligibility requirements for a Standard or Enhanced DBS check, which generally involves working with children or vulnerable adults in a regulated activity. The new definition of regulated activity (i.e. work that a barred person must not do) in relation to children comprises, in summary: i) unsupervised activities: teach, train, instruct, care for or supervise children, or provide advice/ guidance on well-being, or drive a vehicle only for children; ii) work for a limited range of establishments (‘specified places’), with opportunity for contact: e.g. schools, children’s homes, childcare premises. Not work by supervised volunteers. Work under (i) or (ii) is regulated activity only if done regularly. Some examples of volunteer roles that would be eligible for a DBS Check include: -parent helpers in schools or nurseries -a volunteer in a care home who does shopping on residents’ behalf -scout leaders -adoptive parents -a volunteer who mentors disabled adults Do parent volunteers need a DBS check? If you volunteer in a school and you meet the frequency requirements but don’t work alongside children, then you will not typically be eligible for an additional barred list check. However, if you volunteer with children and will spend time with them unsupervised, you’ll usually be eligible for a check against the children’s barred list. An example would be a parent volunteer who is left alone with children whilst helping them with reading. The school you’re volunteering for will need to request the appropriate level of check on your behalf. This is because only companies or organisations can request DBS checks – individuals can’t request high-level DBS checks for themselves. They’ll need your consent to complete the check, and should make sure they follow legal and Ofsted requirements. The school should also ensure that they only make a recruitment decision once the check is complete. https://lnkd.in/eqXFW85B
