Expiry and follow-up

Expiring permission, chased automatically

Reminders to the worker

People with time-limited permission are reminded before it expires, so they can provide evidence of their new status in time.

Gaps reported to HR

People whose Right to Work has never been checked are listed in a gap report sent to whoever holds the right permission.

Feeds your readiness score

What LicenceGuard does, and what it does not

What it does

  • Records each check, including share-code checks, with who carried it out and when
  • Keeps the complete history of checks for each person
  • Tracks expiry dates and sends reminders
  • Reports people who have never been checked

What it does not do

  • It does not carry out checks automatically through an identity service provider. Your team carries out the check and records it.
  • It does not tell you whether a check gives you a statutory excuse. Follow the Home Office employer guidance.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does LicenceGuard check Right to Work automatically?

No. Your team carries out the check, for example using the Home Office online service with a share code, and records it in LicenceGuard. LicenceGuard keeps the record, the history and the expiry reminders.

Can I record checks for people who are not employees yet?

Yes. You can record a check for a candidate before they join, and for engaged workers such as agency staff and contractors.

Can a check be edited after it is recorded?

Checks are added to the person’s history rather than overwritten, so you keep a clear record of every check made.

Who gets reminded when permission is about to expire?

The worker is reminded so they can provide updated evidence, and people who have never been checked appear in the gap report sent to HR.
