Prevention Of Illegal Working

Prevention of Illegal Working

Every employer in the UK is required by law to check that their employees have a right to work in the UK regardless of their nationality. This process is called the right to work check. An employer breaching this requirement can face civil and criminal charges (a fine up to £20,000 per illegal worker and up to 5 years imprisonment).

Visa Legal offers tailor-made Illegal Worker Audits to ensure your business meets all the relevant requirements under the immigration rules. Our audit includes reviewing existing employees’ files, training the staff in charge of recruitment on how to conduct a proper right to work check, understanding the company’s legal duties, recommendations on improvements and more.
