Contractor security clearance

Background screening

Contractors who want to work with EPCOR must complete background screening for security clearance. 

Security clearance 

Contractor applicants can get security clearance in one of three ways: 

  • Complete a background screening request at Sterling Talent Solutions. EPCOR receives the results directly. 
  • Provide a Criminal Record Check from an accredited law enforcement agency. It must be dated within 90 days of hire date. 
  • Provide a federal government security screening certificate. It must be dated within three years of the hire date. The applicant must be a current federal government employee. 

The contractor covers all costs to get their Criminal Record Check. 

Criminal records

If you have a criminal record and a federal government pardon hasn't been granted, you must disclose the conviction in accurate detail. 

If the screening results show that the disclosure was "Not Clear," you may be denied security clearance or asked to get a current Criminal Record Check. 

EPCOR reserves the right to refuse unescorted access to contractors based on past criminal history or for non-disclosure of past criminal conviction. 

Contractors with approved security clearance

If you're a contractor who has been granted security clearance, you will be issued a "Contractor" access ID badge for the expected work timeframe.

An access extension may be requested if required.

Visitor screening process

If you are a contractor that needs physical access for less than 5 days, you will be considered a visitor and must follow the visitor security process. You will be required to:

  • Have a site contact
  • Sign in and out of EPCOR facilities
  • Be prepared to present photo ID to site reception or security personnel
  • Visibly wear a visitor ID card
  • Be under the care of the site contact for the entire time you are on EPCOR property
  • Comply fully with all EPCOR policies and procedures when on EPCOR property​
