「性犯罪歴あり」で配置転換　子どもの安全、学校に義務―日本版ＤＢＳ法案決定・政府

　政府は１９日の閣議で、子どもと接する仕事をする人の性犯罪歴の有無を確認する「日本版ＤＢＳ」の創設法案を決定した。これから就業する人や現職の人を対象に、学校などに確認を義務付ける。性犯罪歴がある場合、子どもの安全を守るため、就業希望者は採用せず、現職者は子どもと接触しない仕事へ配置転換するといった対応を求める。法律の公布から２年半以内に施行される。（2024/03/19-08:59）

The Japanese government, at a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, adopted a bill to create a system to bar people with any sex crime records from jobs involving contact with children.
   The bill to create the Japanese version of Britain's Disclosure and Barring Service calls for obliging schools, nurseries and orphanages to check whether job seekers and workers have such records and implement other measures to protect the safety of children, such as giving related training to their staff members.
   If job seekers or workers are found to have sex crime records, the facilities would be urged not to hire them or to move them to positions that do not involve contact with children, in order to ensure children's safety.
   For other businesses involving contact with children, such as cram schools and sports clubs, no uniform obligations would be imposed. Instead, a program would be established for facilities that implement measures to protect the safety of children to get state certification on a voluntary basis and have their names released.
   The certified facilities would be required to check sex offense records as is the case with schools, nurseries and orphanages.
