This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition All business can do employee immigration checks from their business
More details
As illegal workers are growing, the government should derive a system in which all businesses that are looking to employ people can do immigration, right to work and other legal checks from their own computers.
Each business should be registered and all workers that come for a job interview, the managers can search them. If they don't have the right to work or remain in the UK, then the system should allow managers to flag the person up so UKBA can investigate. Also by the click of a button the police should be called to the business address and arrest the person on suspected breach of immigration law.
This will save businesses from fines and will ensure that they are legal. Also, we can cut down on illegal people.
