Checks included
Verifying the identity of the candidate being screened is the foundation of all screening checks and packages. This ensures all other screening is completed on the principle that the candidate is who they say they are. As such, any flaw or omission in the candidate ID verification can compromise any further screening checks being conducted.
Right to work checks are required for any candidate prior to commencement of employment. This is a non-transferable statutory obligation enforced by the Home Office and carries risk of significant fines and even criminal prosecution if not undertaken appropriately.
There are two core elements to what most organisations refer to as an employment reference check: employment verification (date and role confirmation from previous employer) and substantive referencing (meaningful commentary on conduct and competence of individual being referenced). Many organisations not required to by statutory or regulatory obligation will opt to satisfy just the former when they should be mindful of both.
The Protect package includes a Basic DBS level criminal record check on your candidate(s). This check will provide details of any unspent convictions that a candidate may have and is key to making safer recruitment decisions for your organisation. *England and Wales checks only, additional cost for Scotland, Northern Ireland or international variations.
A candidate’s declared addresses should always be meticulously validated against all other information provided, cross referencing against residency databases
We’re experts in facilitating employment credit checks and varying levels, including standard checks based on 5 years of address history. Our reports clearly highlight any missed payments, defaults, CCJs or bankruptcies, as well as any linked addresses the candidate may or may not have declared during their application. We can also process a further check using CAIS data allowing us to review candidates full financial history including current accounts, credit cards, secured and unsecured debt, defaults and other measures of financial probity.
*UK checks only, additional costs for international variations.
Using cutting edge matching algorithms, we can check your candidates against over 2,000 international sanctions, PEP's and watch-lists to ensure your business is secured against insider threat and complies with relevant AML regulations.

For particular staff categories where individuals have significant influence or make major financial and/or risk decisions, a directorship check is essential to ensure that they do not hold positions which would constitute a conflict of interest or a risk to your business.
*UK checks only, additional costs for international variations.
Whether for a qualification specific and relevant to a role, or simply to establish that a benchmark of educational attainment has been met, education/qualification checks are an important part of establishing whether an individual is suitable for a role for which they have applied.
Drawing from a range of sources, our adverse media checks include traditional media, broadcast media and online media to bring to light any detrimental candidate behaviour otherwise unavailable to you. This includes information around organised crime, financial terrorism, drug trafficking, financial threat, money laundering and much more.
