Require all public-facing roles to DBS check all employees

Petition Details

Make it law that everyone who does a job where they interact with the public must have a DBS check. This includes businesses such as cafes, local corner shops, supermarkets or forecourts, anywhere they would come into contact with the public especially young children.

Additional Information

We all want our children/young people to remain safe. However, I am concerned that people who have serious criminal convictions, including for child sexual offences, are able to get public-facing roles where they interact with children. I believe people with serious criminal convictions should not be employed in these roles.
