Engineering

We provide specialist screening for industrial specialists, technical support professionals, maintenance engineers and many other engineering and manufacturing professionals across the UK. Whilst there is no prescribed screening standard for engineering professionals, we have defined best practice screening packages to cover a variety of roles within the engineering industry.

Reed Screening provides screening packages designed specifically for the needs of the engineering industry, with packages pre-tailored to mitigate risk when hiring for popular roles such as field engineers, specialist engineers or engineering directors. We cover everything from permanent hires and fixed term contractors, to temporary/agency supply chain.

We can provide you with the assurance that all your workers are screened to the high standard you need to ensure that your firm is operating safely, efficiently and with appropriately qualified, responsible, and reliable staff.
