Digital identity validation
The rise of remote working can make it more difficult to verify identity. The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) now allow candidates to validate their identity digitally, so you no longer need to physically review identity documents.
We worked quickly to introduce a Digital Identity checking feature into candidate applications, so you can enjoy this new, time-saving service now.
Let us do the hard work for you.
Improve onboarding efficiency
Avoid the common challenges of conducting DBS checks such as delays, handling sensitive information, process complexity and balancing legal obligations and discrimination concerns.

- Centralise all new employee cases for inspections.
- Guarantee a consistent and fair vetting process for all candidates.
