Right to Work in the UK

UK
Two key laws make it harder for people without the right to work in the UK to obtain or keep employment. This 20-minute express course helps staff recognise the relevant features of UK employment law, identify who has the right to work here, and know how to carry out checks fairly and thoroughly so that the organisation establishes a statutory excuse.
Civil penalties for employing someone without the right to work are substantial and apply per worker, and the excuse depends entirely on the check being done correctly and at the right time. Over-checking creates discrimination risk in the opposite direction. Training everyone involved in recruitment protects the organisation from both failures at once.
