Equality of Opportunity Statement
The Agency’s Equal Opportunities Policy covers all employees, or potential employees, and embraces the principle that all people shall be treated equally, regardless of their age, gender, ethnic origin, nationality, colour, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, religion or belief, disability, or offending background.

Registration implies acceptance of our code of confidentiality. In the course of your duties you may have access to confidential information about your clients. On no account must information relating to identifiable client be divulged to anyone other than the manager of the agency. You should not disclose ANY information to your family, friends or neighbours. If you are worried by any information you have obtained and consider that you should talk about it to someone else MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO SPEAK IN PRIVATE TO YOUR MANAGER. Failure to observe these rules will be regarded as serious misconduct which could result in removal from the agency register

As a general rule, no-one need answer questions about spent convictions. However this general rule does not apply to specified professions, employments and occupations. By virtue of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) (Amendment) Orders, the exemption rule does not apply to:
a) any employment or other work which is concerned with the provision of health services and which is of such a kind as to enable the holder of that employment or the person engaged in that work to have access to persons in receipt of such services in the course of his normal duties, or
b) any employment or other work which is concerned with the provision of care services to vulnerable adults and which is of such a kind as to enable the holder of that employment or the person engaged in that work to have access to vulnerable adults in receipt of such services in the course of his normal duties
One or both of the above apply to work with the Agency, and covers all occupations. You are therefore requested to provide details of all convictions, including those which would otherwise be considered as “spent”. All employment applications will be considered carefully, and the disclosure of a conviction does not imply that this employment application will be rejected.
