Automate Citizenship and Work Rights Checks Using WorkPro’s Digital Identity Solution
How WorkPro’s Digital Identity Solution Streamlines Citizenship and Work Rights Checks in Australia
Conducting citizenship and work rights checks is a legal obligation for all Australian businesses. However, relying on manual processes can present additional administration, increase the instance of non-compliance and expose the business to risk through the acceptance of a fraudulent document. For companies hiring at scale, it is not feasible to consider manually administering this process during screening and onboarding, let alone, maintaining a continuous re-checking cycle once the person is employed.
WorkPro’s Digital Identity Solution addresses these challenges by automating Australian citizenship and work rights checks. As a full-cycle digital solution, the solution combines VEVO and the Attorney-General’s Document Verification Service (DVS) to empower businesses to establish a high standard in workforce compliance while boosting efficiency and security.
Why Digital Identity Verification is Critical for Citizenship and Work Rights Checks
Traditional methods such as manual document collection and data entry are time-consuming and prone to errors, slowing down screening and leaving businesses vulnerable to compliance risks. Data security concerns also arise when sensitive information is managed without the correct procedures.
Leveraging WorkPro’s Digital Identity Solution and integrated access to VEVO and the Australian Federal Government’s Database ensures that your team can handle citizenship and work rights checks efficiently and correctly, confirming eligibility for new hires. Additionally, automated VEVO re-checks confirm that any changes to visa statuses are proactively detected, maintaining workforce compliance throughout employment.
