The Immigration (Restrictions on Employment Order) 2007, as amended, specifies the steps employers should take in checking a job applicant\u2019s right to work in order to prevent illegal working. In the majority of cases, an employer establishes a statutory excuse against a civil penalty under the Immigration Asylum and Nationality Act 2006 by examining a document presented by the job applicant from a list specified in the Order.<\/p>

In limited circumstances, where the job applicant has an outstanding immigration application, administrative review or appeal, the employer should confirm the person\u2019s right to work by contacting the Home Office Employer Checking Service in order to comply with the Order. In these cases, the job applicant is unlikely to have a current and valid immigration document because their case is pending, but they may have a right to work by virtue of having submitted an in-time application, administrative review or appeal and this can be confirmed by the Home Office Employer Checking service.<\/p>

The Home Office has recently launched a new Digital Checking Service which enables the holder of a biometric residence permit and, with their consent, their prospective employer to view the holder\u2019s current immigration status on-line. The digital service will provide employers with additional assurance when conducting right to work checks, but does not currently substitute the checks specified in the Order.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4048", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Caroline Nokes"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Romsey and Southampton North"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Caroline Nokes"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-18T16:35:07.007Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-04-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Migrants: Employment"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether a business which did not use her Department's employer checking service when requested by a job applicant would be in breach of Home Office rules on recruitment and selection.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4571", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Gill Furniss"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Sheffield, Brightside and Hillsborough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Gill Furniss"} ], "uin" : "135202"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/882145", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/882145/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is currently reviewing airline allocated seating polices after conducting consumer research that shows the current approach to allocated seating is causing confusion. As the body responsible for protecting and promoting the interests of consumers travelling by air, the CAA is seeking more information from airlines about their allocated seating practices to find out whether consumers are being treated fairly, and whether pricing policies are transparent. It also sought consumer views directly.<\/p>

<\/p>

The CAA is currently analysing the results of their research. Once this is complete, findings and next steps will be published later this year.<\/p>

NHS England is working with the National Institute for Health Research, Public Health England and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence amongst others to develop suitable evidence generation plans for digital health tools, which will include wearables. Evaluation and evidence gathering is included as part of relevant programmes to help build the currently immature evidence pool in this space.<\/p>

<\/p>

NHS England and partner organisations have also established assessment criteria for digital tool developers looking at the quality, safety and effectiveness of digital health and care apps or tools. The service is due to go live towards the end of 2018 on the developer apps section of the National Health Service website.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition, as part of the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme, NHS England has pilots in hand to test the effectiveness of digital apps in supporting diabetes prevention, which are due to report by the end of 2019. They include consideration of the use of wearable technologies and fitness apps in supporting reduction of diabetes risk. It should be noted that many of the potential benefits of the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme lie in reducing future cardiovascular events.<\/p>
