Eligibility to Work in the UK

To be considered by Rudzik Personnel for recommendation to employers, you must be eligible to work in the UK in accordance with one of the following:

• Be a British or EU citizen;
• Have obtained Visa entry clearance (if required);
• Have had a Work Permit issued to your current employer.

In line with Home Office guidance on the prevention of illegal working, we will need to verify and take copies of your original ID documentation as evidence of your right to work in the UK.

National Insurance Number

By law, all residents and non-residents working in the UK are required to apply for a National Insurance Number at the time that they start or are about to start work.

Worker Registration Scheme

From 1st May 2004, most nationals of the new member states (except Cyprus and Malta) who wish to work in the UK are required to apply to register with the Home Office under the Worker Registration Scheme within 30 days of the start date of commencing their employment.

Nationals who are required to register with the Worker Registration Scheme include: Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

If you do not apply within one month of starting a job, your employment will be illegal after that date and you may have to stop working until you are issued with a registration certificate.
