Where do you get a private criminal record certificate (privat straffeattest), which an employer, for example, can ask to see?
In the exam (Danish)
Hvor får man en privat straffeattest, som fx en arbejdsgiver kan bede om at se?
- aFrom the policeHos politietCorrect answer
- bFrom your doctorHos sin læge
Why?
The private criminal record certificate is ordered from the police, for example on the police website with MitID. An employer is allowed to ask for it, and most information about punishments disappears from it after some years.
Translated with AI. In the exam the question is in Danish, as shown above.
