Record a right-to-work check

Yes Chef keeps a note of the check you made: the kind of right to work, the day it runs out, and who saw the documents and when. Making the check, and keeping whatever copies you have to keep, stays your restaurant’s responsibility. This is done on the web.

Go to Rota & team, then Staff

1. Click the person’s name and open the Employment tab.
2. In the Employment section, pick their Right to work: British or Irish citizen, Settled status, Pre-settled status, Visa or Other.
3. For Pre-settled status, Visa and Other, a Runs out date appears. Pick the day it ends, or leave it at No end date.
4. When you have seen their documents, tick I’ve seen their documents.
5. Press Save. It says Employment details saved, and the line beside the tick now says it was checked, by whom and on which day.

See who still needs checking

1. On the Staff page, press Columns and switch on Right to work and Right to work runs out.
2. Each person shows one of four states: Checked, Not checked (a kind is recorded and the box is not ticked), Expired (the day it runs out has passed) or Not recorded.
3. Use the Right to work filter above the table to list one state. Click a state that is not Checked to open that person’s record at the field.

When the day has passed, the person’s Employment section also says in red that their right to work ran out, with the date.

Keeping a copy

A person’s record has a Documents tab. People with the “Manage compliance documents” permission (Admins and Location Managers by default) see Staff documents there, with an Upload button. Without that permission the tab is empty.
