Right To Work Checks

What is a right to work check and why do you need to do them?

Checking your employee’s right to work is a legal requirement in the UK and applies to full-time and casual workers alike, no matter their nationality.

The right to work check goes deeper when an individual also holds a visa permitting them to live and work in the UK. There is an additional requirement to complete additional checks at the point that permission expires. It might sound like an adminsitrative nightmare, but Backoffice have a wealth of experience in compleeting right to works check and can take the pressure away and keeping you compliant!

There are some pretty hefty repercussions for not complying with this law, so making sure you partner with a provider who understands the requirements is absolutely key. Penalties for non-compliance range from a £20,000 fine for each illegal worker employed, right up to 2 years in prison; so it’s well worth paying for a professional service to stay compliant.
