UK Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 (CQC Fundamental Standards) 19: Employ only persons of good character with the necessary qualifications, competence, skills, experience and health for their work, through effective recruitment procedures that obtain the Schedule 3 information, keep professional registration where required, and act where a person ceases to meet the criteria

What does 19 require?

Persons employed for the purposes of carrying on a regulated activity must be of good character, have the qualifications, competence, skills and experience necessary for their work, and be able by reason of health, after reasonable adjustments, to perform the intrinsic tasks. Recruitment procedures must be established and operated effectively to ensure this, and the Schedule 3 information (proof of identity with a recent photograph, the criminal record certificate or enhanced certificate with barring information where the role permits, satisfactory evidence of conduct in previous health, social care or children's or vulnerable adults' employment, verification of why any such employment ended, documentary evidence of relevant qualifications so far as practicable, a full employment history with a satisfactory written explanation of gaps, and health information relevant to capability) must be available for each person employed, except that for volunteers the full employment history is not required. Persons employed must be registered with the relevant professional body where registration is required for the work or the title used. Where a person no longer meets the criteria the registered person must take necessary and proportionate action and, for registered professionals, inform the regulator.
