Audit checks. Current reference and background check steps: [CHECK_PROCESS]. Roles they apply to: [ROLES]. Check that checks are relevant to the role, applied consistently, with candidate consent and a route to challenge errors. Identify unnecessary or intrusive steps and data retention issues. Return a table of steps with justification and a revised policy outline. Legal limits on checks vary and need advice [VERIFY] for [JURISDICTION]. Add a worked proportionality grid: role with access to money, check of references and identity is proportionate; role with no sensitive access, a basic reference check is enough. Provide a consent form outline with purpose, what will be checked, who will see results, how long they are kept and how to correct errors. Remind me that rules on criminal record and credit checks differ greatly [VERIFY]. Add a worked proportionality grid for three roles with invented checks and reasons, and a short script for asking a candidate for consent. Provide a log of check requests with dates and outcomes and a retention rule agreed with an adviser [VERIFY].
