Right to Work

Right to Work verification—fully automated, fully integrated with Workday.

About

Right to Work is a Workday native application designed to automate and streamline employment eligibility verification during the hiring and onboarding process. Many organisations currently rely on manual document checks, emails, or disconnected external systems to validate a candidate’s Right to Work. These fragmented processes often lead to delays, increased administrative effort, and potential compliance risks. The Right to Work app addresses these challenges by providing a centralised, automated, and auditable verification process directly within Workday.

The solution enables organisations to initiate Right to Work checks during recruitment or pre-boarding, allowing candidates to securely submit identity and eligibility documents through a guided digital workflow. The application supports integration with accredited third-party identity verification providers, enabling automated validation of documents and eligibility status in line with regulatory requirements.

Using AI-driven document data extraction and facial recognition technologies, the app reduces manual document review while improving verification speed and accuracy. Key information from submitted documents can be automatically extracted and updated within Workday, ensuring a single source of truth and eliminating duplicate data entry.

The application also maintains a complete audit trail of verification activities, including submitted documents, verification outcomes, and approvals. With configurable workflows, alerts, and reporting capabilities, HR and compliance teams gain full visibility into verification progress.

By embedding Right to Work verification within Workday, organisations can accelerate onboarding, strengthen compliance, reduce administrative effort, and deliver a secure and scalable verification process.

Features
