The National Vetting Certificate

Do you need to screen your staff to BS7858:2006?

If you need to screen your staff to BS7858 then IPSA, together with Guardianjobs, offer you the NVC (National Vetting Certificate). The NVC is the de facto vetting standard.

Covers BS7858:2006;
Can be completed prior to employment being offered;
Independently auditable;
Verifiable online;
Competitively priced (also IPSA members receive further discounts).

Benefits of the NVC:

Portable – ideal for staff on temporary contracts;
UKAS* accredited - offers the highest quality;
Proves your staff have passed BS7858:2006 – the expected standard;
Allows customers and third-parties to verify it independently;

Raises your credibility and helps you win more business;
