right to work for employment
Employers in the UK must now verify the right to work status of new hires through a digital process, using approved Identity Service Providers (IDSP). This updated method ensures compliance with legal requirements, replacing previous temporary checks.
By leveraging mobile technology, businesses can swiftly confirm an individual’s eligibility to work, reducing the risks of hiring someone without proper documentation. Non-compliance can lead to significant fines or legal action.
NVS offers a simple, secure solution that integrates with government systems, providing businesses with a reliable way to meet these new obligations.
Why Complying with Right to Work Regulations Matters
The importance of complying with Right to Work regulations cannot be overstated. Employers have a legal obligation to verify the eligibility of every employee before hiring, ensuring they are authorized to work in the UK. Failing to do so can lead to significant penalties, including fines of up to £20,000 per illegal worker and possible imprisonment. Beyond legal consequences, non-compliance risks damaging a company’s reputation. By adhering to these regulations, businesses protect themselves from financial and legal repercussions while promoting a lawful and responsible workforce.

Key Update for Employers
As of 6th April 2022, the Government updated Right to Work guidance for UK Employers. This update has introduced a new Digital Scheme which allows employers to remotely verify the identity of people with applicable documents using an Identity Service Provider (IDSP). This has replaced the Covid-adjusted Right to Work guidance which ended on 1st October 2022.
Legal Obligation for Right to Work Checks
All employers in the UK have a legal responsibility to prevent illegal working and must complete right to work checks on every person they hire. You do this by conducting right to work checks before you employ someone in line with Home Office guidance in line with the right to work employment.
Severe Penalties for Non-Compliance
If a business is found guilty of employing someone whom you knew or had ‘reasonable cause to believe’ did not have the right to work in the UK, they could receive fines of up to £20,000 for each illegal worker and a 5-year prison sentence, as well as an unlimited fine.
