Almost 700 wrongly labelled by CRB in a year
14th July 2008, 3:42 pm
People Management magazine reports that errors at the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) in the year to February 2008 resulted in wrong information being given about 680 applicants for jobs in teaching, nursing, childminding and volunteer work.
Given the volume involved this is not very high, but still a serious issue for those concerned. http://www.peoplemanagement.co.uk/pm/articles/2008/07/crb-checks-hit-by-errors.htm.
