SENSITIVE DATA

For people who go on to become pet carers, we ask for you to obtain and to show a copy of a CRB or DBS check certificate to the area manager. This is done at the final point of recruitment and the purpose is to promote the security of our client’s homes and pets that you have access to during your work with us. We do not store a copy of this, only that we have seen it and that it was positive. We ask team members to hold on to this copy themselves in case a client wishes to see it. If any discrepancies are highlighted in the CRB or DBS, pet carers will be given the opportunity to discuss and explain these. If the manager is unsure how to proceed they may discuss this in person, not via email, with Rebecca Wilson at head office but anonymising the pet carer in question.
