Our company is still 90% WFH with locations across the UK, we really don't want to start sending staff into our offices to complete checks on candidates documents especially as we have a ban on face to face interviews as it is.

We're scratching our heads to come up with a solution to this, has anyone come up with some alternative solutions?

The guidance explains that if the business is continuing to operate remotely and in-person checks are not possible, the individual may have to courier original copies of documents verifying their right to work to their employer, who will then need to verify their identity over a video call.
