An enhanced DBS check, also known as an enhanced disclosure, provides more detailed information about an individual’s criminal record, including any convictions, cautions, reprimands, and warnings. Enhanced DBS checks are typically required for roles that involve working with vulnerable people, such as children or the elderly. They can also be required for certain types of employment, such as those involving national security.
To apply for an enhanced DBS check, you will need to complete an online application form and provide two forms of identification. You will also need to pay a fee. The DBS will then conduct a search of their records and provide you with a certificate that details your criminal record.
