How to Streamline Your Work Rights Check Process with Technology

According to research by the Center for Effective Organisations (CEO), about 73% of HR's time is taken up by monotonous administrative tasks. 59% of respondents in the study ‘The State of HR Automation in Mid-Sized Organisations’ also said the HR professionals in their organisation spend over half their time on manual administrative tasks.


That time could be better spent on initiatives to improve strategy and growth of business. This is where WorkPro can help. Streamlining your compliance management, including work rights checks, is easier than ever. As the first commercial entity to trial VEVO and achieve work rights checks digitally, we know how to make this process more efficient. 

Using WorkPro for Work Rights Checks


WorkPro simplifies the work rights checking process, allowing you to manage compliance effortlessly. Here’s how it works:


  1. Automated Invitations: Send requests through WorkPro to your candidates for document submission, and watch WorkPro’s automation guide the candidate to complete their citizenship and work rights check so you can get onto other priorities.
  2. Secure Document Uploads: No need to worry about data breaches, as candidates upload their documents directly to the WorkPro platform with the highest security measures, ensuring you remain compliant without the need to store documents offline.
  3. Instant Verification: WorkPro’s integration with government databases provides instant work rights verification, saving you time and improving the overall candidate experience. Ask for a demo and see how this works.
  4. Automatic Re-Checks: Employers can track the status of checks through WorkPro’s smart dashboard, with automatic re-checking every 96 hours. This makes it easy to stay on top of compliance, relieving your workload.

  3. Seamless Integration: The DVS is seamlessly integrated into WorkPro’s platform, providing a smooth user experience and reliable results, making compliance easy.

How to Use Bundles to Save Time and Money
