Interim Right to Work Arrangements
Alan Kitto
The Government has confirmed that the interim arrangements for carrying out right to work in the UK checks will continue until 20th June 2021, the day before the Prime Minister has announced that all COVID-19 restrictions will end, in England at least.
The interim arrangements allow employers to view the necessary documents for new starters on video calls, and to accept scanned documents from job applicants.
Without a further extension , the established procedure of having to check original documents will be required from 21st June 2021.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions on this or any other HR matter.
