Compliance
Staffing Compliance
Our staffing compliance process is a simple yet important step in our recruitment process. It meets the NHS Employment Check standards and UK legal requirements set out in the NHS Framework Agreement for temporary NHS positions. This that all of our recruits in nursing and general healthcare roles are eligible to work.
We use regular monitoring and auditing to ensure we maintain our high staffing standards in these regards.
Our Compliance Process focuses on the set of six documents stipulated in NHS Employment Check Standards:
• Identification check.• Right to work: Immigration status verification.• Professional registration and qualifications: sighted, verified and re-checked online where applicable
.• Full employment history and two professional references checked.
• Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check obtained (formerly CRB) as well as police checks from recruits’ native country.
• Work health assessments: Occupational health assessment and fitness to work.
