Recruitment of Ex-Offenders - GCC Guidance Notes

The Rehabilitation Offenders Act 1974 is aimed at helping people who have been convicted of a criminal offence and have not-re-offended since.  The Act applies to anyone who has been convicted of a criminal offence and received a sentence of less than two and half years and has not been convicted of an offence during the rehabilitation period.  The rehabilitation period is the specified period after the original conviction. The length of time depends on the sentence the individual was originally given for the offence and runs from the date of the conviction.

If the individual does not re-offend during the rehabilitation period, their conviction is considered to be 'spent'. Custodial sentences over two and a half years are not considered to be spent and always have to be revealed.

Once a conviction is spent, it remains spent and an applicant is not required to reveal it to an employer, even if convicted of a further offence later. However, there is an exemption to this which relates to posts involving working with vulnerable groups including children.
