Request for Criminal Record Check The Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) abides by the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policy. The policy can be found at http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/cjis-security-policy-resource-center/view. In accordance with this policy, any vendor staff members that will perform janitorial services or be unescorted at a PSP facility must have a Federal fingerprint background check performed before entering the building. The vendor staff members required to have this background check must obtain the required authorization letter from their employer before reporting to a PSP installation to give a full set of fingerprints. The PSP will use the fingerprints to perform a state record check and will then forward them to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for a national criminal history record check. The information obtained from the criminal history check shall be used by the PSP for a fitness determination. PSP will retain records of those individuals who have completed the fingerprint background check.
