How to conduct a right-to-work check on British and Irish citizens

30 June 2022

Since 6 April 2022 there are three ways to conduct a right-to-work check on a new joiner who holds British or Irish citizenship:

  • an in-person manual right-to-work check using original documents;
  • a remote manual right-to-work check (up to 30 September 2022); and
  • a digital right-to-work check using a third party identity service provider (IDSP).

This video sets out the steps to be followed for each one of these check methods.
