Understanding BS7858 Vetting
BS7858 screening is an in-depth vetting process that rigorously examines the employees’ background. Essential for UK organizations, this pre-employment procedure enhances both recruitment practices and safety standards, while also fulfilling accreditation requirements. The vetting process includes several key steps:
Employment & Educational History
Review a five-year record to ensure consistency and reliability.
Employment Gap Analysis
Investigate any 31-day breaks
in employment history for accuracy.
Right to Work Verification
Validate that candidates are legally eligible to work
in the UK.
ID Verification
Confirm candidate identity using official documentation.
Social Media & Online Presence Check
Any inappropriate or unethical behaviour that may reflect poorly on the company.
Directorship & Business Interest Check
Ensuring transparency regarding conflicts of interest or undisclosed business engagements (for senior roles).
Global Watchlist Screening
Cross-check the candidate’s details against global databases, including terrorism watch lists and politically exposed persons (PEP) lists, to assess potential security concerns.
Professional Membership Verification
Ensuring that candidates genuinely hold the claimed accreditations relevant to their industry.
Address Verification
Check residential history
for the past five years.
Basic DBS Criminality Check
Screen for any criminal background issues.
Sanctions List Screening
Ensure candidates are not listed on any regulatory or international sanctions databases.
Credit Check
Assess financial responsibility, crucial for roles with sensitive access.
