A BPSS (Baseline Personnel Security Standard) check is a basic security screening process used in the UK. It is typically required for individuals who need to work in or have access to certain government departments, agencies, or contractors dealing with sensitive information. It ensures that individuals are suitable and trustworthy for roles involving access to public sector information and services.
The BPSS check includes:
- Identity Verification: Ensures the person's identity is genuine by checking official identification documents.
- Right to Work in the UK: Confirms that the individual has the legal right to work in the UK.
- Employment History: Verifies a minimum of three years of employment or educational history to check for any gaps.
- Criminal Record Check: Checks for any unspent criminal convictions.
The BPSS is a pre-requisite for higher-level security clearances like SC (Security Check) or DV (Developed Vetting). It acts as a basic level of assurance to maintain security and trustworthiness in public sector roles.
