The biggest shake-up of right to work rules in decades: Our immigration team will discuss the changes and what they will mean for your business.

The UK's right to work regime is undergoing one of its most significant changes in 30 years. From 1 October 2026, right to work obligations will extend to certain working arrangements that have previously fallen outside the scope of the existing framework, requiring businesses to review their recruitment, procurement and compliance processes.

These changes are being introduced as part of the Government's wider efforts to tackle illegal working and strengthen enforcement activity. With civil penalties for employing illegal workers reaching up to £60,000 per worker, it is more important than ever for organisations to understand how the new requirements may affect their workforce and what steps they need to take to remain compliant.

Join our practical webinar as we examine the changes coming into force on 1 October 2026. We will explain why the changes are being introduced, explore the new compliance requirements, and work through real-life scenarios to help businesses understand how the new regime will operate in practice.

Topics will include:

• The policy background and rationale behind the changes

• Which working arrangements will be brought within the scope of the right to work regime from 1 October 2026

• Introducing extended liability

• How the new requirements will operate in practice

• Case studies illustrating common workforce arrangements

• Practical steps businesses can take now to prepare for the new regime

This webinar is suitable for HR professionals, recruitment teams, people managers, compliance professionals, in-house legal teams and anyone responsible for engaging workers or overseeing workforce compliance.
