Manually determining DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) levels has become a silent productivity killer for HR and compliance teams. The process is slow, repetitive, error-prone, and heavily dependent on individual interpretation of regulations. As hiring volumes increase—especially in healthcare, education, and care sectors—manual DBS decision-making simply does not scale.

This is where Oracle AI Agents are changing the operating model.

At PCL, we built a DBS Level Checker AI Agent using Oracle AI Agent Studio, designed to replace manual DBS determination with an automated, explainable, and enterprise-governed system—natively inside Oracle Fusion workflows.

The Problem: Why Manual DBS Level Determination Fails

Determining the correct DBS level is not just a checkbox exercise. It requires evaluating:

Job Role Responsibilities
Exposure to Vulnerable Groups
Sector-Specific Legal Requirements
Barred List Applicability

In most organizations today, this process is:

  • Handled manually by HR or compliance teams
  • Based on static guidance documents
  • Prone to over-screening or under-screening
  • Difficult to audit or justify later
The Result:
  • • Slower onboarding
  • • Higher compliance risk
  • • Increased operational cost
  • • Inconsistent decisions across teams

The Shift: From Manual Judgment to Oracle AI Agents

Organizations are now moving from manual determination to automation through Oracle AI Agents.

Machine Speed
Consistent Logic
Regulatory Intelligence
This shift is already happening. The winners are organizations deploying Oracle AI agents today.
