Right to Work Checks are Changing
Right to Work Checks are changing, and employers need to be ready before 1 October 2026.
The Home Office has confirmed changes to Right to Work Checks that will extend requirements beyond traditional employees. From 1 October 2026, the scope will include workers, individual subcontractors, agency workers and online matching services, bringing gig-economy roles, such as delivery riders, care workers and platform-based cleaners, into scope for the first time.
That’s why TrustID, part of the Citation Group, has published a free blog, Right to Work changes in new Home Office draft, coming 1 October, breaking down what employers need to know ahead of the changes.
Inside the blog, you’ll discover:
✅ Who will need a Right to Work Check
✅ How “extended liability” could affect your business
✅ The three routes to completing a compliant check
✅ Steps to protect your statutory excuse
The changes will be particularly important for businesses using agency staff, subcontractors or online platforms to source labour, as liability could extend further down the contractual chain.
