Reference and background checks

You acknowledge that due to the inherent nature of the Company’s work with various clientele and contractors, all employees must be of suitably good character. Austunnel Pty Ltd considers an inherent requirement of employment to be that employees do not have a conviction recorded against their name for any serious criminal offence or a criminal offence which involves or relates in any way to an act or acts of dishonesty, violence or sexual misconduct. For the purposes of this clause, a serious criminal offence means any offence which is punishable by a term of imprisonment of 6 months or more.

You permit Austunnel Pty Ltd to obtain a:

• Criminal history check using the National Criminal Record Check through a checking agency that is either the NSW Police Service or an agency recognised by NSW Police Service or legislation; and
• Obtain a National Criminal Record Check.

A determination about whether criminal history shall preclude an individual from working with the Company shall be at the sole discretion of the Company.

You warrant that:

• all information which you have provided to the Company in the process of application for the position, and which may be material to the Company's decision to offer you employment, is true and correct;
• you do not have a conviction recorded against your name for any serious criminal offence or a criminal offence which involves or relates in any way to an act or acts of dishonesty, violence or sexual misconduct that have not been disclosed to the Company;
• throughout the course of employment, you will notify the Company as soon as is practicable after a court or tribunal makes a finding of guilt for any criminal offence (this means you must notify the Company if you are found guilty of a criminal offence, even if a conviction is not recorded);
• you have not entered into, and will not enter into, any agreement in conflict with your Employment Agreement or your employment with the Company;
• other than what you have disclosed to the Company, you are not restricted from performing the duties in connection with a restrictive covenant or other non-competition obligation owed to anyone, or a restriction imposed on you concerning the use of any information or the Intellectual Property Rights of anyone; and
• the credentials and information provided by you to the Company (or to the Company's agent) in connection with your qualifications and ability to perform the duties pursuant to your Employment Agreement are true and correct.
