With every company in Australia legally required to carry out Right to Work checks or risk significant fines, getting this crucial step in the recruitment and onboarding process right is essential.
It's all too easy for someone to obtain forged visa and identity documents, enabling them to present a false identity when applying for work.
With 1 in 5 individuals experiencing an identity crime in the past 12 months, this is becoming a growing concern for HR teams and hiring managers.
The Right To Work check in Australia is available to:
-
Australian citizens
-
New Zealand citizens
-
Australian permanent residents
-
Foreign nationals who hold a valid work visa
The Australian Department of Home Affairs heavily enforces these regulations and issues substantial fines to individuals and companies who do not comply. These penalties may also apply to companies who refer someone, such as recruitment agencies.
Right To Work checks made by registered Australian companies reference the Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) system to show the status of visas, including if they have expired or been cancelled. They may also show conditions such as the number of hours permitted to work, and if the visa holder is only permitted to work for a specified employer.

The fact that we don’t have to remind candidates to bring 100 points of ID into interviews and don’t have to manually complete forms after interviews have finished means that our process is much more streamlined.
