Right to Work

Course Overview

An interactive and engaging online course on right to work for employees. This course has been updated to include new legislative changes due to Brexit.

Employers must carry out the right to work check correctly - even if the applicant comes through a recruitment agency. Carrying out these checks correctly will protect your organisation from fines and penalties if you unintentionally employ an illegal worker.

This employment law course will help you understand your responsibilities under the law and show you how to carry out a right to work check. The course also takes you through some examples that you might encounter at work.
