References
Motherwell Care will approach the referees of short-listed candidates only. Please give details of 3 people who can comment on your suitability for this post, one of whom must be your current or most recent employer. The other referees will ideally also be your most recent previous employers, where possible we will require references to cover the last five years’ work history, especially that of the current/last employer.
It is preferable that you seek professional references where possible and that these are from different organisations. Where you have worked in previous care roles confirmation will be sought regarding your employment and these will be verified.
If you cannot provide the details of your previous employers, you may substitute one or more of these with a referee who was a former tutor or teacher when you were in formal education.
If you cannot provide details of a teacher or tutor, we may accept a personal reference from a person of professional standing (e.g., a doctor, lawyer, accountant, recognised religious leader or teacher) who knows you, either professionally or personally.
You must not give the names of friends or relatives or colleagues that are/were not senior to you as referees. All references will be verified.

Rehabilitation of Offenders Act
The post for which you are applying is in regulated activity as defined by the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006. As such, the role is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 section 4(2) Exceptions Order 1975 as amended in 2013. You are therefore required to disclose information regarding any ‘unspent’ conviction, bind over, caution, or similar AND any which for other purposes are deemed ‘spent’ under the provisions of the Act but which would not be filtered by the Disclosure & Barring Service. Employers are not permitted to take filtered offences into account when making employment decisions. For more information about which cautions and convictions are filtered and should not be disclosed to us, visit: https://hub.unlock.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/What-will-be-filtered-by-the-DBS.pdf.
A conviction, bind over, caution or similar will not automatically disqualify you from employment, but failure to disclose relevant information that would not be filtered may lead to your application being disqualified or, if you have already been appointed, you may be summarily dismissed.
If you are offered the post for which you are applying, Motherwell Care will first require a satisfactory enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service certificate and a check of the relevant DBS barred list(s) before permitting you access to children or vulnerable adults entrusted to the care of our Organisation. For care posts, you will also be required to confirm that you are not disqualified from that role by the Disqualification from Caring for Children (England) Regulations 2002.
