Ep. 4 People Talk: Right to work checks - latest developments and insights from an IDSP

Foot Anstey’s Employment team brings you a new podcast series, going beyond employment law and talking about what makes your business what it is – its people. In this episode of our new series, our experts explore right to work checks including the common pitfalls by employers, how the increased fines for illegal working will impact employers and why employers should consider engaging an IDSP, if they haven't done so already. What's in this month's podcast? Partner & Head of Employment, Karen Bates is joined by Senior Associate, Gemma Robinson and Tony Machin, CEO at Trust ID to discuss the increase in fines from early 2024, the impact this will have on employers and why they should review their processes/systems in advance. Furthermore, they explore common pitfalls in follow-up checks by giving examples of how it could and can go wrong and what employers need to know to stay compliant. Tony explains the services an Identity Service Provider (IDSP) like Trust ID provide to employers, the costs involved and their onboarding process.
