PVG Duty to Refer Webinar

Disclosure Scotland is offering free video webinars to employers who utilise the PVG scheme, their countersignatories and staff involved with the disciplinary process.

This interactive webinar is designed to provide PVG employers with the opportunity to:

• Understand your PVG referral obligations and how they relate to a safer Scotland

• Understand what conduct meets the criteria for a referral to Disclosure Scotland

• Understand how to make a referral to Disclosure Scotland and what happens with the information you provide

• Ask questions and participate in group discussion

Expert staff will guide you through the process, utilising their extensive knowledge of relevant legislation.

The webinar will be held on Microsoft Teams and can be joined via computer or mobile device using either the Teams app or through the web browser.

All employers involved in providing regulated work must be aware of referral obligations as part of their disciplinary procedures. The PVG Act 2007 places duties on organisations to refer individuals to Disclosure Scotland when certain conditions are met. Information on these duty to refer obligations can be found on our website.
