CRB Checks

[Eastender]

Hi, I work in a care home and all the staff have to renew their CRBs. Mine must be 5years old now, some of the staff are even longer. I have not worked anywhere else in that time. My question is do I have to pay for the CRB check? I am sure last time the company I worked for paid it. At the moment, I have heard that the owners are going to refuse to pay for the checks this time! which I think would be unfair as I am sure they get a discount for completing so many at a time. Anyone help. Thank you.

i think these crb checks are costing alot of money in some cases.i work for a county council in a school and have had one done 3 months later we became shared lives carers through the same county council and i had another one done .i didnt pay but it was a waste of money.I wouldnt have minded if it was with a different organisation but the same council!!
