two.1.4) Short description
A number of our students, along with external individuals undertake small, individual pieces of work for the University on an ad hoc basis. As workers, all are required to undertake a Right to Work (RTW) check before any work is carried out and abide by any limitations imposed if they are studying under a tier 4 visa.
In order to manage and therefore mitigate these risks, the University requires a system solution to prevent breaches and ensure that workers can only be commissioned for work in the first instance where a Right to Work (RTW) check has taken place, where the worker is available and not already booked for other work or has other work pending, and where the work remains within any restrictions imposed by a Visa.
The University requires this to be provided by a SaaS solution.
