REHABILITATION OF OFFENDERS ACT 1974

By virtue of the Rehabilitation Act 1975 (Exemptions) Order 1975, the provisions of Sections 4.2 of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 do not apply to any employment which is concerned with the provision of health services and which is of such a kind as to enable the holder to have access to persons in receipt of such services in the course of his/her normal duties.

It is therefore not contrary to the act for referees to state any criminal convictions that would otherwise be considered as spent.

Please note Policy 0813/63 (Recruitment and Employment of Ex-Offenders) – copy available on request

Access NI operates under the provisions of Part V of the Police Act 1997. All healthcare workers will be asked to apply for an Access NI Enhanced Disclosure as part of the recruitment and selection process. The cost of this is £32 and is the responsibility of the applicant. Any additional information relevant after commencement of employment must correspond to Staff Nursing.

Staff Nursing has policies on ¹the Recruitment of Ex-Offenders and ²the Secure Use, Handling, Storage, Retention, and Disposal of Information. Both are available on request. A criminal record is not a bar to employment and may not exclude you from being offered membership with Staff Nursing.
