What is BPSS Clearance?

BPSS (Baseline Personnel Security Standard) is the entry-level security screening for UK personnel working with government-sensitive information or assets. It is not a formal security clearance (like SC or DV) but a baseline vetting process to ensure reliability.

check Icon Minimum Requirement - Mandatory for roles accessing OFFICIAL government data.
check Icon Foundational Screening - Serves as a prerequisite for higher clearances (SC/DV).
check Icon Widely Applicable - Required for civil servants, contractors, and private sector staff supporting government projects.
check Icon Why It Matters: BPSS clearance ensures employees in government, finance, or healthcare don’t pose security risks.

Our BPSS checks are fully aligned with Cabinet Office guidelines – no compliance gaps.

Who Needs BPSS Clearance?

BPSS clearance is a mandatory requirement for roles involving access to UK government systems, sensitive information (OFFICIAL tier), or physical assets. It applies to both public and private sector personnel.

check Icon Civil servants, public sector employees and temporary/agency staff working in government departments or public bodies.
check Icon Private sector contractors and suppliers supporting government projects (e.g., IT, infrastructure, consultancy).
check Icon Defence sector personnel including civilian staff in the MOD and contractors in national security or critical infrastructure (energy, transport).
check Icon Anyone handling sensitive data such as personal records, financial information, or material in secure government facilities.

Roles with no access to sensitive data or systems may not require BPSS, but most government-affiliated positions mandate it.

For details, review the UK Government’s BPSS guidelines.

Most BPSS checks are completed in 24–48 hours using automated tools, compared to 5+ days for manual processes. Delays may occur if documents are incomplete or require additional verification.

BPSS is a UK-specific standard, but some international partners (e.g., Five Eyes allies) recognize it. For global roles, combine BPSS with local vetting requirements.

Yes! BPSS is the foundation for SC (Security Check) or DV (Developed Vetting). Higher clearances require added checks (e.g., financial history, in-depth interviews).

BPSS has no official expiry, but employers often recheck every 3–5 years. Significant life changes (e.g., criminal convictions) may require earlier renewal.

No. BPSS is employer-driven – your employer or contracting organization must initiate and sponsor the checks. Individuals cannot self-apply.

Employers will notify you of failed checks (e.g., unspent convictions, discrepancies). You can appeal or provide additional evidence to resolve issues.
