Disclosure and Barring. Service (DBS) checks (formerly known as Criminal Records Bureau)
10.1. The Guidance on Direct Payments 2009 issued by the Department of Health advised that Local Authorities have a power and in some cases a duty to undertake Disclosure and Barring Service checks on the Personal Assistants that Citizens may employ with their Direct Payments, which in Manchester are now called Cash Personal Budgets. Disclosure and Barring Service checks are undertaken to safeguard and inform the recruitment and employment of staff working with children and adults that require care support. They are important as a potential employee may have criminal convictions, cautions, or the Police may have information relating to previous criminal activity. However the use of DBS checks should not replace other pre-employment checks such as obtaining and checking references which are equally important. The Council strongly recommends that Citizens, Nominees or Authorised Person should ensure that any Personal Assistants they employ have a background check completed by the Disclosure and Barring Service. In certain circumstances, Disclosure and Barring Service checks will be mandatory before Personal Assistants can be paid from the Cash PB. This can include any Council agreement for you to employ close relatives that live in the same house. Regardless of whether or not the citizen decides to have their Personal Assistant checked they should ask their Personal Assistant to disclose any convictions, cautions, or warnings prior to starting work. Disclosure and Barring Service checks are mandatory for: Personal Assistants of Citizens where safeguarding concerns have arisen and a Disclosure and Barring Service check is considered necessary by the Council; A Nominee or Authorised Person who will be responsible for managing the cash element of the Cash IB who is not a close family member, or friend involved in the planning and delivery of the Citizens care; Personal Assistants directly employed by a Nominee or Authorised Person who is not a close family member or friend involved in the planning and delivery of the Customer’s care. The Council will pay for and organise initial mandatory Disclosure and Barring Service checks via the Council’s brokerage team if required. This is subject to all Personal Assistants registering with the Disclosure and Barring Services “Update Service”. There will be a cost of £13.00 per year for Personal Assistants to access the Update Service that they will be expec...
