Extension to temporary right to work checks

The government has extended the end date up to which employers can carry out temporary adjusted checks on workers to ensure they have the right to work here.

Employers can refuse to allow their employees to wear symbols of faith at work as long as they apply the policy across the board, irrespective of the symbol.
