Positions within supermarkets are covered by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore cannot lawfully be CRB checked (now known as DBS checked).
The only exceptions are for financial and security positions but in these cases, the checks will be undertaken by the FSA (Financial Standards Authority) and SIA (Security Industry Authority) respectively, not the supermarket.
