East Midlands HR have an additional service for their clients with Identity Document Validation Technology (IDVT) supporting employers digital right to work checks using a UK Government certified provider.

From 6 April 2022, employers were no longer able to do online virtual checks of passports for UK and Irish citizens, ending the Covid adjusted check process. The digital ID enables users to add a government-issued ID document and take a biometric selfie. Once verified, the applicant shares only the details our clients need to meet the right to work verification process.

‘Candidates have to bring in their original documents to the new employer, adding time to the recruitment process. Having this software, we take care of the admin process, and the checks are completed prior to employment.’  Nicky Buckley, Managing Director, told us.

They upload this to their cloud-based HR System for the clients, where it is stored safely and securely, recording time limits making sure no expiry dates are missed.
