Right to work, records & HR for UK employers · 2026-ready

Every UK employer has to prove right to work. Make it the part you never worry about.

Record right-to-work checks the compliant way, store the proof, and keep your people records, contracts, holidays and conduct in one place — so a Home Office civil penalty is never the thing that catches you out. Hold a sponsor licence? We track visa re-checks and sponsor duties too — the part the big HR tools leave to you.

A right-to-work check is a legal duty for every person you employ — not just sponsored staff

Five figures

Civil penalty per illegal worker, for any employer caught without a valid check

Sponsor licence

Hold one? Visa re-checks and sponsor duties are tracked too — where generalist tools stop

Everything a UK employer needs to stay compliant

Right-to-work checks and proper people records are a legal duty whether you sponsor anyone or not. Tenavo handles the lot — and replaces the spreadsheets and the folder of contracts while it's at it.

Right to work

A legal duty for every employee you take on. Record the check the compliant way — share code, manual document or IDVT — store the proof, and keep your statutory excuse against a penalty.

Employee records

Personal details, NI number, address and emergency contacts in one secure file per person — with start and end dates and live status.

Contracts & onboarding

An onboarding wizard captures everything a new starter needs and auto-generates a statement of particulars from your editable template — print it or upload the signed copy.

Holidays

Entitlement by days, fixed hours or 12.07% accrual, a configurable leave year, a team calendar, and request → approve in a couple of clicks.

Sickness

Log absences with fit-note flags, attach the GP note, and keep per-employee year-to-date totals — without the spreadsheet.

Conduct & warnings

Record incidents and warning levels with expiry dates, attach supporting documents, and generate an Acas-aligned warning letter ready to print.

Compliance dashboard

Every check, follow-up and renewal date on one ledger, sorted by urgency — so nothing lapses, and you can show your records the moment anyone asks.

Plain-English guidance

Dated, general guidance on right to work, holidays, conduct and more — with links to GOV.UK and Acas as the source of truth. Information, not legal advice.

For sponsor licence holders

The compliance the big HR tools leave to you

If you sponsor overseas workers, generalist platforms track holidays well but hand the hard part back to you. Tenavo tracks it: certificate of sponsorship, visa start and expiry, and the annual re-check date — with reminders before each one falls due, because a missed re-check is what costs sponsors their licence.

A record-keeping tool for your own compliance — not an immigration adviser.

  • Certificate of sponsorship & visa expiry tracking
  • Automatic reminders before each re-check is due
  • Sponsor-licence duties kept in view
  • Audit-ready evidence on screen in seconds

Set up in an afternoon

No implementation project and no consultant. Create your organisation, add your people, and the compliance tracking starts working immediately.

1

Create your organisation

Sign up as the account owner and start a 14-day trial — no card to begin.

2

Add your people & checks

Run the onboarding wizard and record each right-to-work check with its proof. Add sponsorship details too, if any of your staff are sponsored.

3

Never miss a date again

Follow-ups, renewals and missing checks land on one ledger, sorted by urgency — so nothing lapses, and your records hold no surprises.

Guidance built in

Know what to do, not just where to click

Every area the app tracks comes with plain-English, dated guidance — what a compliant check looks like, what records to keep and for how long, and your holiday and conduct obligations. Each article links straight to the official GOV.UK and Acas source.

Guidance is general information, not legal or immigration advice. Rules change frequently — always confirm against GOV.UK before acting.

  • Right to work — methods, evidence and the statutory excuse
  • Holidays — entitlement, accrual and the leave year
  • Conduct — warnings, expiry and the Acas approach
  • Onboarding & data protection essentials
  • Sponsorship — re-checks and sponsor-licence duties
