What happens if I don’t pass a DBS check?

If you do not pass a DBS check, the implications will depend on the nature of the convictions disclosed and the requirements of the role you are applying for. Employers may choose to withdraw a job offer or terminate employment if the check reveals information that raises concerns about your suitability for the position. However, it is essential to remember that not all convictions automatically disqualify you from employment; many employers consider the context and relevance of the information. If you believe the check contains errors, you have the right to dispute the results.
