Right-to-Work & Identity Verification Training

Build a Right-to-Work Process Your Business Can Rely On

A right-to-work checking process your business can rely on protects your workers, your business and your audit results. Verifying worker identity and right-to-work is a critical legal and ethical obligation, and a frequent source of non-conformance in SMETA and Fair Farms audits.

This course provides a practical guide to conducting checks and documenting them appropriately in Australia and New Zealand. You’ll learn what types of evidence to review, how commonly used verification processes work, how to keep accurate records while meeting privacy requirements, and which common mistakes to avoid.
