Right to work responsibilities have changed.
From 1 October 2026, the rules can extend beyond direct employees to certain workers, subcontractors and platform-based arrangements.
With civil penalties reaching up to £60,000 per illegal worker for repeat breaches, businesses should review their checks, contracts and records now.
