Details

This is the 1.0 publication of the supplementary code for digital right to work checks. It has never come into force.

It was due to come into force when the first CAB was accredited to certify against it. However, no CAB has ever been accredited to certify against it and none will ever be accredited as a new version of the code has been published, version 1.1.

If you’re looking for other versions of this supplementary code, or for other supplementary codes you can also view all current and previous versions of the supplementary codes.
