Right to Work Guidance | Joining your Students' Union Team
Right to Work in the United Kindom has changed
Following the transition of the United Kingdom from the European Union, the Right to Work and Visa requirements for non-British Citizens from EU countries have changed. The information listed below is correct at the time of publication (August 2024) but further detail can be accessed online here
Staffordshire University Students' Union has a legal obligation to ensure that every prospective employee has the legal right to work in the United Kingdom. This simply means that we must check your identity documents and make a copy of them during the recruitment process.
To do this we use a company called Trust ID who carry out trusted identity checks on our behalf using Identity Document Validation Technology. This all sounds very complicated, but don't worry - we will send you further information if we make a conditional offer of employment.
Please remember you will not be able to take up employment with us until this check has been completed, so please make sure you have the correct identity documents available before you apply. Further information is available here.
