Growing your workforce

This Better Hiring Toolkit provides simple guidance to support you to both obtain and provide effective references and conduct information. It has been compiled as a collaboration between the Better Hiring Institute, Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS), Skills for Care, Reed Screening, Dominic Headley & Associates (DHA), and VBA Consulting. At the heart of the Toolkit is the safety of the people who employers are entrusted to care for and the staff who carry out this role.

The Greater Manchester Inclusive Recruitment Toolkit focuses specifically on ethnicity and disability and provides live examples of practice taking place in Bury, Rochdale, Salford and Oldham. Learn more
