Lumos actively promotes equality of opportunity for all with the right mix of talent, skills and potential and welcomes applications from a wide range of candidates, including those with criminal records. Lumos selects all candidates for interview based on their skills, qualifications and experience. Lumos undertakes not to discriminate unfairly against any subject of a criminal record check on the basis of a conviction or other information revealed.
Because of the nature of the work we do at Lumos - working with vulnerable children and families, all employees will be asked to complete relevant police check or provide a certificate of good conduct from the country that they last resided in.
The decision as to the level of check required will be made following a risk assessment of the requirements for the role and the appropriateness of such checks. Candidates will be made aware of the level of check required during the recruitment process and can read Lumos’ Privacy Notice for more information.
Lumos ensures that an open and measured discussion takes place on the subject of any offences or other matter that might be relevant to the position. Failure to reveal information that is directly relevant to the position may lead to withdrawal of an offer of employment. Lumos will discuss any matter revealed by such checks with the individual before withdrawing a conditional offer of employment.
