These pages contain information for new staff/visitors on the various immigration routes which may be available.
They also provide guidance on UK immigration law relating to employees, workers and visitors to departments/institutions. They aim to:
- help ensure that new staff have the right to work in the UK before they commence work
- guide you through the processes to follow when appointing someone who needs to obtain right to work through the UK immigration system
- make you aware of the duties that need to be met throughout the employment/visit of a sponsored individual.
Following this guidance will help departments/institutions to stay within immigration law and will allow appointments to be made more smoothly.
Please visit our Forms, templates and webinars page to watch our webinars which provide an oversight of the critical areas of immigration within the University (Raven login required).
If you are in any doubt about any aspect of UK immigration as it relates to recruitment or right to work, please contact the Compliance Team for further assistance before proceeding.
