The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) has launched a new weekly podcast series, ‘DBS discussions: Safeguarding in Focus,’ aimed at employers, HR teams and anyone working in safeguarding.
Each episode of the podcast features a DBS specialist explaining how key DBS processes work in practice. Topics will include:
- How DBS checks fit into recruitment.
- Common questions from employers.
- Clarity on eligibility and regulated activity.
- How barring decisions are made.
- The role DBS plays in wider safeguarding.
The first episode was released on 9 February 2026, and introduced the function of DBS and the impact of checks in recruitment.
New episodes will be available each week on Spotify, Amazon and YouTube
