Overview of criminal record checks
Carry out basic, standard or enhanced DBS checks with our digital platform
Criminal record checks, commonly known as the DBS check, play a crucial role in your company’s operation and the need to have a robust pre-screening solution is now more important than ever. This is especially true for companies that serve the most vulnerable among us, hold positions of trust, or have access to sensitive information. Our online DBS check system provides a simple and easy way to vet an individual’s criminal background, offering fast, reliable, and comprehensive results. Choose from four different levels of checks based on your requirements, and either manage the process yourself or let us handle it for you. “I have always found whomever I speak to at SVS to be professional, efficient and personable. Using the DBS portal has been a revelation for us, it is very user friendly and easy for us and our prospective candidates to use and we find the results arrive promptly, which has greatly helped with our pre-employment screening process. It is very useful as well to be able to use SVS for foreign criminal record checks as we need to from time to time.” RS, The Cotswold Group.
