The Verification of Identity and Right to Work Guide details what identity (ID) documentation can be accepted.

HR Shared Services (HRSS) are guided by the check standards of NHS Employers, available on the NHS Employers website.

Any uncertainty on whether a document can be accepted should be queried directly with the NHSE People and Organsation Development Team. 

Please be aware that for any documents being used as proof of address, you cannot accept two documents from the same provider. For example, gas and electricity bills from the same company.


When will the 'Verification of Identity and Right to Work Guide’ be received?

A candidate will initially receive the 'Verification of Identity and Right to Work in the UK' guidance document when they receive an invite to interview.

A Recruiting Manager (RM) will have access to this document once they receive the notification to confirm the Interview Pack is ready to download.
