I handed over the request to Secure Screening Services... and had minimal involvement in obtaining certification which allowed for me to concentrate on other matters. The portal was easy to navigate and even the complexities of arranging a check for a French resident, was completed without difficulty by the team. Great communication and great results.

FAQs

Do engineers in the energy sector need background checks

Yes, engineers working in power plants, renewable energy, utilities, or critical infrastructure require background checks to ensure compliance with industry regulations.

What checks are carried out in the energy & utilities industry?

Depending on industry regulations employers should conduct BPSS Clearance or BS7858 Screening to ensure full compliance.

What is BPSS Clearance?

BPSS Clearance, or Baseline Personnel Security Standard screening, is a fundamental pre-employment check in the UK, conducted to ensure the security of individuals who have access to sensitive government information. This screening verifies an individual's identity, employment history, criminal record, and right to work in the UK.

Who is eligible for BS7858 Screening?

Anyone working in a secure environment where the security and/or safety of people, goods, services, data or property is an operational requirement. This could be those working in public-facing roles or who hold positions of authority.

What are the benefits of using a digital Right to Work?

Using digital Right to Work has many benefits. Firstly, it’s much quicker as document validation technology in conjunction with biometric facial matching provides a quick and convenient process and removes the need for organising a face-to-face meeting. It’s hassle-free and robust, as Identification Document Validation Technology (IDVT) removes the responsibility of physically scrutinising and ratifying documents presented to you. Additionally, it also reduces the risk of errors associated with recording passport details, providing you with a quickly generated, accurate identity verification.
