Right to Work Checking Service
Right Of Work Check With Us
Right to Work Checks are an essential part of the recruitment process, enabling employers to verify that potential employees are eligible to work in the UK.
The employer must check the applicable documents – for example, a passport or visa – to establish whether a prospective employee has a time-limited or permanent right to work.
Employers are required to do this before employing any person to make sure they are legally allowed to do the work in question. Failing to do so puts the employer at risk of being fined by the Home Office.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no general rule here. On occasions the applicant will pay for the check whilst in other cases the Organisation that is requesting the check may reimburse you in your first pay check.
These are lists maintained by the DBS of individuals who are barred from working with either children or vulnerable adults, or both. Individuals working in regulated activity with either of these vulnerable groups will require a check against the relevant barred list.
We complete DBS Checks within 48 hours on average. However, while the majority of DBS online checks are complete within this timeframe, some may take longer depending on how long the DBS and police take to process the application.
The information provided during a DBS Check is accurate at the time the check is carried out, and whilst DBS certificates don’t officially expire, employers need to decide if the amount of time that has elapsed since the check was carried out means a new one is required. There may be a requirement for re-checking as determined by a governing body or professional organisation.
A Basic Disclosure is a background check that will show all unspent convictions. It can be requested by an individual, or by a potential employer with the applicant’s permission. If you are an individual living or working in England & Wales and you wish to apply for a Basic DBS Check for yourself, you can find out more information about Basic Checks and how to obtain them – here.
DBS certificates do not have an expiry date, only a start date. If you still have your certificate to hand, it is at your employer’s discretion to say if it is valid or whether they would need you to apply for a new DBS certificate
