Verifying your right to work

The Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006 requires employers to check documents to establish a person's eligibility to work in the UK and compliance with any restrictions. Under the Act we are required to check your eligibility to work in the UK before you start work. We therefore ask all candidates to bring proof of their right to work to interview and a copy will be taken.

If you are successful at interview this documentation will be kept on your personnel file. If you are not successful the documentation will be shredded and securely disposed of. If you forget to bring this documentation you will be asked to bring the original to 私房俱乐部 before an offer can be made and contract sent.

Right to Work checks during the coronavirus

For the safety of staff and candidates, the face to face interview format has moved to interviews via video call. Prior to the interview, candidates should send in their right to work documentation to the hiring panel. On the day of the interview, the candidates must display the original right to work documents for the panel to verify the copy via video call. 

What happens to the right to work documents?

Successful candidate

All right to work documentation will be kept within your personnel file.  For candidates who undergo a right to work check via video call, you will be required to present the original copies of the right to work once you return to campus. The HR department will be in touch to arrange the in-person check. 

Unsuccessful candidate

All right to work documentation will be deleted or shredded once the hiring decision has been made.
