Sponsor Licence Compliance Check Support
As a sponsor licence holder, companies must bear the corresponding responsibilities to comply with Home Office regulations. This places a significant workload on the company's human resources team and may lead to an imbalance between managing work visa licenses and strategic human resource needs.
Licence holders are required to adhere to the following regulations:
-
Supervising employee immigration status to prevent illegal employment, including verifying employees' rights to work legally in the UK.
-
Maintaining employee contact information.
-
Keeping records and reporting on employees' work.
-
Monitoring employee attendance.
-
Following recruitment procedures outlined by skilled worker visa regulations when hiring.
The Home Office places a high level of trust in sponsors to fulfill their compliance responsibilities, but in recent years, compliance checks by the Home Office have become increasingly frequent. Before approving a sponsor licence application, the Home Office may even conduct visits to your business premises.
The obligations and responsibilities of sponsor licences can change periodically, so if there are any changes in your company's circumstances, it is advised to seek professional advice.
Employers who fail to fulfil their sponsor licence responsibilities may face civil penalties, downgrading of license ratings, or even suspension or revocation of the licence.
Depending on the company's situation, there may be additional qualification requirements and immigration experts can be consulted if necessary.
