Employers should only accept identity documents (ID) with differing names where the applicant can provide supporting documentary evidence of their name change.

For example, documentary evidence might include:

  • a marriage or civil partnership certificate
  • a decree absolute / civil partnership dissolution certificate
  • a deed poll certificate
  • a recognition certificate
  • a statutory declaration

If the candidate cannot provide sufficient proof of their change of name, the Recruiting Manager will need to contact the Health Services Safety Investigations Body (HSSIB) HR team.
