In the part of Australia I grew up in if you work with kids you need to get something called a blue card. It is a light background check nothing too serious. In my cheerleading team there was some of us over 18 but most were under 18. Club management said if you are over 18 you should get one, not because it was needed, but just if a parent asked anything they can say we all have blue cards.
Cue talking to my friends about it and they effectively boiled it down to, "So you have a card that say you are not a pedo?"
We have something like that in Canada. It's called a certificate of conduct.
In the UK I've previously heard it called a CRB check, but seems it's been updated to DBS now
