Every quarter, the Home Office releases a list of illegal working civil penalties. Pizza Hot is in the latest list, which relates to the quarter from October 1 to December 31, 2022. The list was published in May this year.
Guidance from the Home Office states: “Employers have a duty to prevent illegal working in the UK by carrying out prescribed document checks on people before employing them to ensure they are lawfully allowed to work.
“Illegal working often results in abusive and exploitative behaviour, the mistreatment of illegal migrant workers, tax evasion and illegal housing conditions.”
