BASIC Disclosure Check
A basic Disclosure shows current convictions only (“Unspent”) and is accessible to any individual/employee for any purpose throughout the United Kingdom.
For example, working on premises unsupervised, i.e. Aviation Security, Alcohol/Personal Licence and any individual who would like access to their records.
STANDARD Disclosure Check
A Standard DBS goes into a little more in-depth as this is primarily industry-specific positions in-line with the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act.
This level of Disclosure shows all reprimands, cautions, warning and convictions that are both spent and unspent. Individuals are unable to apply for this level as it has to be accessed through their employer.
There is one certificate issued which will be sent direct to the applicant's home address. Sectors which can access this level include Accountants, Solicitors, and Financial Services Sector.
ENHANCED Disclosure Check
The Enhanced Disclosure is the highest level of Disclosure check available and will check the same information as the Standard Level in additional to information held by the Police - this is also sometimes called “soft intelligence”.
This is where the Police can place information that they feel is relevant to the applicant applying to the position. In addition, the Enhanced Level can be checked against the Child Barred List and/or Adults Barred List, depending upon the position that the individual will be employed as.
Sectors which can access this level can include Teachers, Carers, as well as Health Care Professions
