Hi, I've today been offered a position within a company I've long wanted to work for, Subject to a CRB check.. :o

Does anyone know if cautions show on standard CRB Checks? Or is it just Enhanced CRB checks that cautions show?

Thanks :)

What you’ll find on a criminal record check
The CRB check will either confirm that you don’t have a criminal record, or it will list any relevant convictions, cautions, reprimands, warnings and, if applicable, whether you have been barred from working with vulnerable groups. The police can also include non-conviction information, for example, fixed penalties, that may be relevant.

Criminal records - what they are (crime and justice section)

From here

oh dear :( thanks. Better start looking for another job then :mad:
 
From a bit of Googling it seems a caution isnt a conviction so it only shows on enhanced crb checks, Or on government vetting things for high security jobs.

The job is basically handling expensive computer components (lots of them) so I suppose they'll mainly be looking for anything theft related?

Yeah I'm just gonna go with it and say nothing. Thanks fellas :)
 
Having had much experience with this subject... with my girlfriends criminal past ;) I can confirm that for a standard CRB check cautions will show. Spent cautions wont show.

I believe it takes 5 years before they are spent.

Of course do your own research. Call CRB checkline if you want to be 100% sure.

Regardless, dont let this stop you going for the Job!!!! And perhaps you should just declair if asked...

I'll think about giving them a call mate cheers.

I was asked in the interview if a crb check would come back fine and I said yes it would, Did I lie :confused: (I thought it only showed convictions at the time)
