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.
