Enhanced CRB checks apply to roles involving a much greater degree of contact with children or vulnerable adults (compared to the Standard CRB check) especially where an employee would supervise, train, take care of, or be solely in charge of children or vulnerable adults. For example: medical professionals, teachers, and personal carers. Enhanced CRB checks can also include an extra level of checks on the ISA Barred Lists.
