Immigration Law | Right to Work Checks one year on: what have we learned?

Immigration Law | Right to Work Checks one year on: what have we learned?

As an employer, securing skilled talent and recruiting the right person for a role is vital to the future success of your businesses. Businesses who wish to recruit a candidate from overseas, or transferring staff from overseas offices to work in the UK need to apply for a Sponsor Licence so they can sponsor foreign workers. This webinar will cover the key points businesses need to know about the Sponsor Licence system.

Homeworking and hybrid working patterns look here to stay and this webinar will cover what Home Office Licenced Sponsors need to do to ensure that they are meeting their duties and responsibilities when their sponsored workers are working from home from an employment law and immigration law perspective.

In the last 12 months there have been a number of changes on how to conduct Right to Work checks. Some of the changes are minor or procedural, however some are more substantial. It is therefore important that you stay up to date on changes to Immigration rules and ensure that you are doing everything needed to remain compliant.

A year on from the introduction of many of the changes, Employment specialist Noele McClelland and Business Immigration Solicitor Gurjit Pall, shared what has been learnt about the new processes and the key points employers should be aware of.

This webinar covered:
  • New Right to Work Checks; one year on.
  • Sponsor Licences; what you need to know
  • Working From Home - What this means for employers with sponsor licences
