Arsenal Football Club has renewed its security vetting contract with Mitie for a further five years.
The contract extension will see Mitie continue to provide essential vetting services include background checks, criminal records checks and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks.
As one of the world’s biggest football institutions, Arsenal places a strong emphasis on employee security and safety and requires stringent background checks on current and prospective employees. As part of the agreement, Mitie’s vetting business, Procius, will undertake a suite of vetting services underpinned by its bespoke vetting technology platform, MyCheck™.
MyCheck™ will be used to carry out a plethora of background checks including digital identity verification, CV and right to work checks, as well as verifying employment and education history.
Commenting on the contract renewal, Jason Towse, Managing Director, Business Services, Mitie, said: “As a market-leading vetting services provider, we’re proud of our great relationship with a football club of Arsenal’s stature. We’re looking forward to continuing to provide exceptional vetting services backed by our smart technology solutions.”
