5.1 Can an employer ask for criminal record details from a job applicant? In some circumstances there is a clear legal requirement that an employee or job applicant should not have a certain criminal record. An employer may be obliged to ask a job applicant for criminal record details in these circumstances. Employers are, however, required to ask an employee to consent to a police check.
If you have an unpardoned criminal record, an employer can refuse to hire you depending on certain factors such as the nature of the offence and how long ago it occurred. This will depend on how relevant your offence is to the position and how comfortable the organization feels in hiring you for the position.
