IMPACT – MEDIUM
The Home Office has updated its guidance on right to work checks for eVisa and biometric card holders.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The Home Office’s extension of temporary right to work checks are currently set to expire on April 5. If job applicants or existing workers cannot show their documents, employers must contact the Home Office Employer Checking Service. If individuals have a right to work, officials will send a “Positive Verification Notice” that provides a statutory excuse for six months from the date of the notice.
BAL Analysis: Employers and employees should take note of the guidance for eVisa and biometric card holders to ensure they adhere right to work check requirements. BAL will continue to monitor right to work check measures and will provide more information as it becomes available.
