Standard DBS Check

A Standard DBS Check is essential for roles that involve a degree of trust but do not necessarily involve working directly with vulnerable groups or children. This check provides details of an individual's criminal history, including convictions, cautions, reprimands, and warnings recorded on the Police National Computer (PNC). It is commonly required for positions such as security guards, cash handlers, and certain licensing roles. The Standard DBS Check ensures that employers have access to relevant information, enabling them to make informed decisions about the suitability of potential employees for these specific roles. Compliance with this check helps maintain integrity and safety in various professional environments.

Enhanced DBS Check

An Enhanced DBS Check is meticulously designed for individuals working in close contact with vulnerable groups, including children and at-risk adults. This comprehensive check provides an extensive review of an individual's criminal history, incorporating all the details included in the Standard DBS Check, alongside any additional information held by local police forces that might be relevant to the role. It is crucial for positions in healthcare, education, and social care, where safeguarding is paramount.

This thorough vetting process ensures that organizations can make well-informed decisions when hiring individuals for these sensitive roles, thereby promoting a safer environment for those most in need of protection. The Enhanced DBS Check is a critical component of safeguarding protocols, helping to prevent unsuitable individuals from gaining access to positions of trust and responsibility within vulnerable sectors.

DBS Update Service Registration

The DBS Update Service is an online subscription that allows individuals to keep their DBS certificates up-to-date and enables employers to check the status of these certificates. By registering for the Update Service, individuals can avoid the need to apply for a new DBS check each time they change jobs or roles, saving both time and money.

Subscribers also gain the advantage of being able to view their DBS certificate online, ensuring they always have access to their information. Employers benefit from real-time status checks, which help them quickly verify whether a potential employee's DBS certificate is current and valid. This service enhances efficiency and security in the vetting process, making it an essential tool for both individuals and organizations involved in regulated activities.

Beyond the ordinary

There are three tiers of DBS Checks: Basic, Standard, and Enhanced. The appropriate level of check is determined by the specific context of your application.

Basic DBS Checks are the most widely used and are generally required for most situations unless exceptions apply as detailed below.

Standard DBS Checks, while less common, are mandated for roles within FCA-regulated sectors, including Financial Services and Insurance.

Enhanced DBS Checks are necessary for positions involving employment or volunteer work where individuals will engage in activities related to healthcare or will have unsupervised contact with children and/or vulnerable adults. This includes scenarios where professionals like plumbers perform services in environments such as schools.
