Right to Work Checks
About Right to Work Checks
Right to work checks are how UK employers protect themselves from civil penalties for illegal working. Done correctly, they create a statutory excuse if a worker turns out not to have permission. The rules cover online share codes, document-based checks, identity verification technology and follow-up checks for time-limited permission. RakLAW Solicitors advise employers and sponsors on building a right to work process that fits their workforce, training managers to apply it consistently, and tightening the system if a check has slipped through the net.
