Work with Minors: Extract 596-2

RecommendationVerified

When the function involves education, psycho-medical-social guidance or supervision of minors, identify form 596-2. A general extract does not correspond to this purpose.

The Federal Public Service Justice attaches form 596-2 to article 596, paragraph 2, of the Code of Criminal Procedure. It distinguishes this form from form 595 basic and form 596-1 intended for regulated activities. Clarify the actual activities of the position in the application, especially for an educator or a role supervising minors.

The page offers a template form to choose the right extract. Separately verify the sectoral obligation for control applicable to the establishment: this page does not create a general obligation to request a record from all healthcare workers, nor a uniform validity period.

The page displays no date. The date retained is that of publication, February 2, 2017, of the Royal Decree of November 21, 2016 on the issuance of extracts.
