Peel Regional Police expressly identifies Brampton residents among the people who can apply to the service for a criminal record check or record suspension. Applicants should still ask the organisation requesting a check which type it requires.
Brampton's logistics and warehousing sector includes many roles where employers may require background screening before onboarding. Confirm the required check type and accepted format with your employer in writing before starting an application.
People performing licensable security work in Ontario should confirm current requirements and exemptions at ontario.ca before applying for a licence. A criminal record check is one component of the licence application; consult Ontario's current licence page for provider and submission requirements.
A CRJMC, a basic criminal record check, and a vulnerable sector check are not interchangeable. The requesting organisation — not the applicant — determines which type is required. Confirm this in writing before submitting any application to avoid delays or the need to reapply.
A Criminal Record and Judicial Matters Check (CRJMC), also called a Level II police check, is one type of police record check. Confirm the current check requirement, issuer, format, recency, and acceptance directly with the licensing authority before ordering.
