Right to Work Checks: Tracking Compliance with Custom Software

How custom software tracks right to work checks and visa expiry dates for employers.

UK employers must verify every employee’s right to work. For those with time-limited permission, follow-up checks must be conducted before expiry. Getting this wrong means fines of up to £60,000 per illegal worker.

What a Custom System Does

  • Employee records: Right to work status, document type, check date, and expiry date.
  • Automatic alerts: Reminders 90, 60, and 30 days before visa expiry.
  • Document storage: Scanned copies stored against each employee’s record.
  • Audit export: CSV report of all records, ready for Home Office audit.

A £500 custom system eliminates the risk of £60,000 fines entirely.
