The criminal records bureau is the executive organization of the Home Office which searches different databases and helps you know if your employees or other people you come in contact, over the age of 18, have had any criminal convictions or court orders in the past. As an employee this would help you know if you can recruit a particular person and trust him or her. After all, it is very important for you and your family’s as well as your property’s safety. However, you cannot apply for a criminal records bureau check if you are self employed.

You can ask your employee or prospective employee to apply for the CRB check. However, even if an employee has a criminal record on the disclosure form, it is totally on your discretion whether you want to take his or her services or not. In fact, it may be considered a criminal act to make an application for employment in the areas which are listed to be barred.

Just imagine what havoc it would play with your personal and professional life if you came to know that the person you employed had a criminal history on his or her records. Isn’t it better to take precautions beforehand itself? And the precaution comes in form of a background check done on all the people who are either unknown to you or about whom you are suspicious in any way.

The good thing about criminal records bureau is that it is valid indefinitely. Also, there is no legal requirement to get it renewed annually. But generally all organizations ask their employees to reapply every 1-3 years to be on a safer side. A fee needs to be paid if you are an employee of an organization to fill the CRB form.
