Should we be more open to recruiting social workers with a criminal history?
Inspired by this news story about Tommy Sheridan this week, our podcast hosts debate the specific factors influencing decisions about employing individuals with criminal convictions in sensitive professional roles.
They discuss potential risks, public trust, and safeguarding concerns, highlight the importance of rehabilitation, and explore how a balanced approach can be achieved, ensuring both protection of vulnerable individuals and fairness in employment opportunities.
Join the conversation every Friday morning.
Created by social workers, for social workers.
