Right to Work Changes from 1 October 2026: What Employers Need to Know

As of 1 Oct 2026 the rules on right to work checks have changed, and the impact extends far beyond traditional employees.

Under the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Act 2025, employers must now consider a wider range of working arrangements, including certain agency workers, individuals engaged under workers’ contracts, subcontractors and individuals providing services through online matching platforms.

What do employers need to know?

- Right to work checks may now be required for a broader range of individuals.
- Liability can extend to businesses that engage workers indirectly through other organisations.
- Fines have increased to £45,000 for a first breach and £65,000 for subsequent breaches, per illegal worker.

There has never been a better time for employers to review their recruitment procedures, commercial contracts, identity verification processes and staff training to ensure compliance.

Read our latest article to understand the changes and the practical steps your organisation should take to comply.👇
