If you’re already accredited on the SIA Approved Contractor Scheme, you’ll know the importance of efficient screening. Get it wrong and you can put your ACS status at risk. More importantly, you can expose your clients and your business to unnecessary risk and slow down deployment.
If you’re not already ACS, putting in place effective screening to BS 7858 is an essential step towards getting there.
Our 5-year BS 7858:2019 security screening includes:
- Preliminary Checks (ID documentation, SIA Licence Check, consumer credit report, sanctions check, social media check)
- Limited Screening (including most recent three years’ tele-vet and leasing with the candidate for evidence where required)
- Full Screening (five year employment history validation)
- Securing evidence for all gaps in excess of 31 days
- A comprehensive Screening Report, providing you with a complete record of screening enquiries, responses and required documentation in one report.
Contracting out candidate screening can help you to reduce costs and increase margins. More importantly, you can focus your resources on activities that grow your business.
