Use the eDBS decision tool to understand the type of DBS check that your role will require. It is particularly important that positions involving regulated activity are covered by the correct check. 'Regulated Activity' is work which involves close and unsupervised contact with vulnerable groups including children, and which cannot be undertaken by a person who is on the Disclosure and Barring Service's Barred List. It is illegal to employ anyone who appears on this list.
Please note: This tool does not cover every role or situation. Please contact our DBS Helpdesk on 03330 135890 if you require any further guidance.
