Legal position and safety precautions
Delhi Police Act, 1978: This legislation provides the framework for policing and maintenance of public order in Delhi. Domestic help verification is an administrative and preventive policing service. Any specific compulsory verification requirement, deadline or penalty should be checked against the applicable police order or local notification rather than assumed to apply uniformly in every circumstance.
Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023: This statute governs criminal procedure, including police investigation and related powers. Ordinary domestic-help registration is not itself a criminal complaint or an FIR.
Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023: Criminal liability depends on the facts and applicable offence provisions; hiring a worker or submitting a verification request does not by itself establish an offence.
Delhi Police advises residents to have domestic workers verified and to take household security precautions. Ask for previous-employer references, record emergency contacts, safeguard identity documents and avoid unnecessary disclosure of personal information. Do not treat an acknowledgement as a certificate that the worker has no criminal history.
