    Criminal record declaration form for jobs covered by the ROA

    You have been asked to complete this form because the role you have applied for is
    covered by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. The information disclosed on
    this form will not be kept with your application form during the application process.

    Policy statement on recruiting applicants with criminal records

    This post is covered by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore
    applicants are required to declare:

     Unspent convictions and/or unspent conditional cautions only

    For further information on how long it takes for convictions and conditional cautions
    to be spent, please refer to Nacro’s guide on the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act.

    We recognise the contribution that people with criminal records can make as
    employees and volunteers and welcome applications from them. A person’s criminal
    record will not, in itself, debar that person from being appointed to this post. Any
    information given will be treated in the strictest confidence. Suitable applicants will
    not be refused posts because of offences which are not relevant to, and do not place
    them at or make them a risk in, the role for which they are applying.

    All cases will be examined on an individual basis and will take the following into
    consideration:

     Whether the conviction is relevant to the position applied for.


     The seriousness of any offence revealed.
     Your age at the time of the offence(s).
     The length of time since the offence(s) occurred.
     Whether the applicant has a pattern of offending behaviour.
     The circumstances surrounding the offence(s), and the explanation(s) provided.
     Whether your circumstances have changed since the offending behaviour.

    It is important that applicants understand that deliberate attempts to conceal the


    information requested in this form could result in disciplinary proceedings or
    dismissal. Further advice and guidance on disclosing criminal records can be
    obtained from Nacro’s Criminal Record Support Service.

    cross on the line below and attach the details in an envelope stapled to this form. The envelope
    should be marked CONFIDENTIAL and state your name and details of the post.
