Who it is for
The records are about them. Most start with them, too.
Right to work evidence, a current address, a signed acknowledgement, a payslip. An employer must hold all of it, and almost none of it exists unless somebody asks the worker and writes down when they answered.
What a worker actually does.
Four things, none of which require them to understand a word of immigration law. A hard flow is an incomplete record: every extra step is a worker who does not finish.
- 01
Joins from a link
Sent by their employer, opened on a phone, no account created and no password to forget. The invite expires, which is itself part of the record.
- 02
Supplies what only they can supply
Passport or share code, National Insurance number, address, qualification certificates — photographed where they stand, not scanned in an office.
- 03
Confirms they were told
Employment rights, site inductions, policies. One tap, and what is stored is the person, the moment, and a fingerprint of exactly what they were shown.
- 04
Keeps their own side current
A change of address takes seconds and writes a new entry rather than erasing the old one. Hours go in from the job. Payslips are there when they need them for a landlord or a bank.
What a worker sees in their own view
| In their own view | Why it is there |
|---|---|
| Their documents and status | What has been accepted, what is outstanding, what is expiring. |
| Their payslips | Grouped by month and year, downloadable, available without asking anybody. |
| Their hours | What they submitted, and the weeks it was counted in. |
| What they have acknowledged | Every briefing and policy they have confirmed, with the date. |
| Their contact details | Current, and correctable by them, which is how the employer’s history stays accurate. |
