UK Criminal Records & Background Checks
A criminal record background check is the process of looking up and compiling criminal background information,
employment history, credit information, financial
records, address and phone number, residence history, court records and
public/civil records. Background checks are often requested by employers and renters on applicants, especially on those that are seeking a high
security job or a position of power, such as in a government jobs, military, banks, schools, hospitals, financial institution, airports, etc.
Criminal background checks have been performed in the past by a government organization for a fee. Criminal background checks
today are more frequently provided by private companies that can access public databases, the same databases used by government organizations. The results of
the private databases are usually more complete and faster
indexing and cross-referencing of different types of
database records.
A person's identity is not always what they say it is. Verifying a person's background and indexing the criminal history of a person are often
used by employers and renters as a means of objectively evaluating a person's qualifications and to
avoid potential risks. Criminal records,
however, may sometimes be used for illegal purposes, such as unlawful discrimination, identity theft, and
harassment. It is important to
verify the information obtained within criminal databases by cross referencing phone numbers and addresses to make sure that the criminal
information you find is indeed for the person you are searching for.
