The dbs will not issue reprints of certificates unless the certificate was never received by the staff member, or if they are applying within 93 days of the date of issue and the address for resending the certificate is the same as the initial application. If your certificate states child workforce and you now need an adult workforce certificate then you will need to apply for a new check.
