Absolutely, Driver's Licence Checks can actually be a valuable tool for your employee screening process. By simply verifying the validity of an individual's licence, you can quickly ensure that they are legally allowed to drive for your business before hiring them. You can also make use of the driving history information provided by the DVLA to assess whether or not someone is a safe and responsible driver, as you don't want someone with a poor driving history, or even prior convictions behind the wheel of a company vehicle.
Please keep in mind though, you must always have an individual's consent to check their licence information, and this information must only be used for employment purposes.
