International Presbytery and the Presbytery of Jerusalem

The Safeguarding Service has produced a document – Appendix 6 – on the recruitment process for workers applying to carry out regulated work with children and/or protected adults in congregations in the International Presbytery and the Presbytery of Jerusalem. The document includes information on the appointment of a Locum.

The process states that the relevant criminal record checks are required every two years.

For workers already in post, we would advise that the individual applies for a criminal record check if this was not carried out at the time of recruitment.

The SG03-IP Self-Disclosure Form for the International Presbytery and Presbytery of Jerusalem can be downloaded from the Safe Recruitment section of the Church of Scotland website.
