Course overview of Right to Work Checks

Right to Work Checks apply to all employees. Every employer has a duty to prevent illegal working. Whilst this has been in place since the 1990s, there are some key changes that have taken place as a result of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Flourish, in conjunction with Royds Withy King, a specialist law firm, have worked together to bring you this mini course to explain the Right to Work Checks which includes the implications of Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Civil and criminal penalties exist for employers who neglect this duty, with fines of up to £20,000 for each illegal worker you employ. We bring you this free online course with the recommendation that you invest a little time to avoid a costly mistake and/or a criminal record.
