Many people are unaware of the impact an arrest can have on both your personal and professional life. Not everyone is aware, that these records can be deleted from the police national computer (PNC) via a detailed application and providing supporting evidence.

Many jobs require employers to get a government DBS (Disclosure & Barring) check.

This check confirms information held by the police, including details of unspent convictions, cautions, etc.

Upon release of this information, employers have been known to suspend or dismiss current employees or refuse job offers to potential employees.

Furthermore, if you have been arrested, this can show up on an enhanced DBS certificate or local records, even though you were not charged.

Deleting An Arrest

Deleting the arrest would put you in a stronger position concerning future employment and travel (including short-term visa applications and emigrating).
