Background checks for child care providers, employees, and volunteers.

This bill would prohibit the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) from requiring a subsequent background check for a child care provider, employee, or volunteer if DOHMH has already completed a background check for such child care provider, employee, or volunteer within the past five years, unless the child care provider, employee, or volunteer has not been employed by a child care provider in the city for more than 180 consecutive days in the past five years, or a background check is otherwise required by law.
