Today, more and more organisations need to ensure that contract specialists are vetted before they start work - particularly when the contractors are to be involved with working on projects of a commercially sensitive nature or when working outside their country of residence.

This need is being driven by a number of factors including:

• Legal requirements in EU countries
• Government regulations
• Industry association best practice guidelines
• A response to risk assessment
• The need to enforce tight security.

B & M offers a complete, bespoke service, delivering accurate and thorough vetting in short timescales to ensure that prospective IT contract specialists are able to start on a project with the minimum of delay.

Our service is built around our principles of using Best Practice in everything we do and is tailored to suit the needs of different organisations based in different countries.

Our vetting service can include some or all the following checks on a prospective candidate:

• Proof of identity
• Proof of nationality
• Proof of residency
• Proof of right to work
• Credit reference
• Criminal record
• Personal reference

We will also take care of the legal side of taking on contract staff by making the necessary notifications to relevant authorities about the details of the contract assignment.

All B & M's processes and procedures are compliant with the requirements of the UK Data Protection Act 1998.
