Safer Recruitment

Recruiting safely is a fundamental safeguard against abuse and misconduct.

Petros specialises in safer recruitment processes that prioritise the welfare of children, adults at risk and all vulnerable groups.

Our services cover all stages of recruitment including job descriptions, advertising, application screening, interviews, references and DBS checks. We emphasise the importance of values-based recruitment to ensure candidates align with organisational safeguarding culture.

Training and resources help managers and HR teams recognise warning signs and ask safeguarding-relevant questions. We also guide on probation and ongoing supervision to maintain safe practices after hiring.

Safer recruitment builds organisational confidence and protects all involved by reducing risks of unsuitable individuals gaining access to vulnerable people.
