A report listing the fines for illegal working given to employers in the UK is published on a quarterly basis.
The Home Office states that offenders can be sent to prison for five years or handed an unlimited fine if they are found guilty of employing someone who they knew or had ‘reasonable cause to believe’ did not have the right to work in the UK.
This includes having reason to believe that a person did not have permission to enter or stay in the UK, their permission had expired, they were not allowed to do certain types of work, and their papers were incorrect or false.
Fines can go up to £60,000 per worker.
