What is PeopleHR?

PeopleHR is cloud HR software from the UK, part of The Access Group. It gives small and mid-sized businesses one place for employee records, absence management, appraisals and performance reviews, time and attendance, HR reporting and self-service through a mobile app, with Ripple workflows to automate HR tasks. Applicant tracking, payroll and employee benefits are available as connected products in the Access suite. PeopleHR is used by thousands of UK businesses, typically with a small HR team or an office manager handling HR.
  • Start screenings from PeopleHR
  • No retyping of candidate details
  • Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck

Starting a screening from PeopleHR data

HR starts a Pescheck screening for a new starter or employee without re-entering their details.

Employee details flow in

Name, email address and job details come from PeopleHR, so the person gets the right Pescheck invitation straight away.

Status comes back

Progress is visible from PeopleHR's side as far as PeopleHR's API allows, so HR knows whether a check is still running or finished.

Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck

ID scans, diplomas and criminal record certificates stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in your HR system. The report is available to authorised users in Pescheck.

Where screening fits in a PeopleHR workflow

PeopleHR holds the employee record, so the person you screen is usually a new starter who has just been added or an existing employee. A background check fits between the accepted offer and the first working day, or before someone gets access to money, customer data or sensitive systems. For roles in finance, security, care or with access to confidential data, periodic re-screening of current staff is common too.

Without an integration, HR retypes the person's name, email address and role into a separate screening tool and keeps track of results in a spreadsheet. With the integration, the screening starts from the employee who is already in PeopleHR.

Connected through Kombo

How the connection works

Pescheck connects with PeopleHR through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software that many HR tech vendors use. Your PeopleHR admin authorises the connection once. In Pescheck you choose which checks belong to which roles, for example ID, criminal record, diplomas, references, employment history, credit or PEP and sanctions screening, and our integration team helps you map this to your PeopleHR setup.

Connect once

Your admin connects PeopleHR to Pescheck through Kombo with a secure authorisation. No custom development.

Start screening where you work

Recruiters and HR start a Pescheck screening from the record in PeopleHR. The candidate gets a secure invitation to give consent.

Follow progress in one place

Status updates come back to the record, so nobody copies data between systems.

Who uses it

The integration suits UK and international SMEs that run HR in PeopleHR and employ or hire people in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe, where local checks such as a Dutch VOG apply. It gives them one GDPR compliant screening step as part of onboarding, started from the system HR already uses, with most checks done in 1 to 3 working days.
