Probity Check
Probity screening assesses integrity and ethical standards, ensuring alignment with organisational values
Probity, in the context of submitting NCCHC applications, refers to the assessment of an individual's background to determine their suitability for a position of trust. While commonly used in employment or volunteer settings, probity checks are also relevant for personal or non-employment-related purposes.
This category is for individuals applying for a role that involves public trust or reputation, such as becoming an unpaid board member, volunteering at a charity, or appearing on television.
If you're applying for a check for work, probity, or licensing and will have any contact with children, choose the correct category (employment, probity, or licence) and clearly state how you’ll be interacting with children.
