:mad:I'm glad SarEl posted this, because it saved me saying that as an employer, while we MIGHT allow someone to start work on sight on their copy of an enhanced CRB, we would promptly apply for another one. Until that came through, what we allowed them to do would be restricted.

If I were using agency staff, I'd expect the agency to have carried out their own ECRB, and not to be relying on the employee's copy, which may not have full information on it. Some information is only released to the employer, and will never be seen by the employee.

We were told you should never start people before you have applied for CRB and at least got an ISA first, they could not be left alone with clients at all. If CQC did an unannounced they would not be impressed.

You are correct. You may start people if they are supervised (probably worth saying, by someone who is cleared!), but many employers won't. It's a bit of a nightmare (although legal) to "end" someone who doesn't clear. So it is generally taken to be better to get clearances before confirming an offer.
