PVG / Disclosure Scotland

For posts considered Regulated Roles under the Disclosure (Scotland) Act 2020, successful candidates will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme Update check before employment is confirmed by East Dunbartonshire Council.

The cost of the PVG check will be deducted from the successful candidate’s first salary payment. In certain circumstances, this deduction can be made in installments following employment commencement, subject to approval by the HR & OD Manager.

If an employee leaves before the deduction is made, the full amount will be deducted from the final salary.

This process applies to existing employees applying for roles requiring a PVG/Disclosure check.
