With identity fraud now accounting for 50% of all fraud committed in the UK, verifying the identity of applicants is an essential part of your employment screening process to ensure that the person you are recruiting is who they say they are.

Our advanced online system provides instant results that flag up any inconsistencies or issues of concern, helping you to prevent fraud, unnecessary operational costs and meet legal obligations.

Right To Work

Before employing any member of staff, it is your legal responsibility as an employer to check that he or she has a right to work in the UK which means undertaking a process of identity verification.

Manual document checks are no longer enough to detect today’s sophisticated forgeries and the cost of verifying the identity documents is minimal in comparison to the fines incurred for employing an illegal worker.

We can supplement your own internal process by providing Digital right to work checks for UK and Irish passport holders or we can verify a range of documents including International passports and visa in order to confirm identity and Right to Work.

Identity Verification Checks
Questions Answered

Identity verification checks are processes used to confirm the identity of an individual. These checks involve comparing the personal information and documents provided by an individual against trusted and reliable sources to ensure that the person is who they claim to be.

The specific information required for identity verification checks can vary depending on the context and purpose of the check. Typically, it includes personal details such as full name, date of birth, address, and identification documents like passports, driver’s licenses, or national identity cards.

Identity verification checks are conducted for various reasons. They are often used by organisations and businesses during onboarding processes, financial transactions, access to secure systems or facilities, and compliance with regulatory requirements. The purpose is to prevent identity theft, fraud, and unauthorized access.
