A standard Canadian Criminal Record Check does not include a search of the Pardoned Sex Offenders Registry, generally referred to as a Vulnerable Sector Search. This type of record is done on candidates who may be working with children or vulnerable persons, such as those with disabilities, or the elderly. Vulnerable Sector Checks are used to verify if an individual has a record suspension (formerly pardon) for sex offences. Sectors where this search is recommended would include: healthcare environments, educational institutions, non-profit organizations, and sport and recreation centres to name a few.
JUST Checking Resources Inc. can conduct this search for you, and it will require finger printing verification. Your candidate will need to present themselves for fingerprinting at one of our affiliate office locations. These office locations are within Canada and are as follows:
- Halifax, Nova Scotia
- Montreal North, Quebec
- Montreal Downtown, Quebec
- Kingston, Ontario
- Toronto Downtown, Ontario
- Scarborough, Ontario
- Ajax, Ontario
- Ottawa East, Ontario
- Ottawa Downtown, Ontario
- Kanata, Ontario
Alternatively, if your candidate does not reside close to one of these fingerprinting offices, they will need to visit a local police precinct or other authorized fingerprinting location and have that check complete on their own, at the own cost. If you are a client that is a part of our Fully Managed Services Program, however, we can direct your candidates to complete these checks whether it is with our affiliate offices or otherwise.
JUST Checking Resourecs Inc., and partners, complies with Canadian and Provincial privacy policies and will assist our clients in the proper steps of obtaining these records.
