Agent #06 · The Validator

Never place
an illegal worker again.

The Validator automates every right-to-work check, DBS clearance, reference chase, and compliance document — before day one. Zero missed checks. Zero penalties. Zero risk.

Complete compliance
before every start date

The Validator runs every compliance requirement in parallel — chasing candidates, checking document authenticity, and flagging expiry dates weeks before they become a problem.

  • Automated Right to Work document checks (Share Code, passport verification)
  • DBS check initiation and tracking via Government Gateway integration
  • Reference requests sent and chased automatically
  • Expiry alerts 90, 30, and 7 days before any document expires

The risks you're currently taking manually

Every compliance check done by hand is a check that could be missed. The consequences are severe.

Civil penalties up to £60,000 per illegal worker
Since 2024, the maximum civil penalty per illegal worker found at your client's site is £60,000. Sponsors lose their licence. Some face criminal prosecution.
Reputational damage with key clients
Placing an unchecked worker creates significant reputational exposure — not just for your firm, but for the client company. Relationships built over years evaporate overnight.
Ofsted & Care Quality Commission failures
In healthcare, education, and social care, a single DBS gap or lapsed indemnity policy means an immediate placement ban. The Validator tracks every expiry automatically.
HMRC IR35 non-compliance
The Validator tracks IR35 status, checks CEST assessments, and ensures every off-payroll placement has correct documentation — protecting you from the end-client's liability.

Automated compliance. For every sector.

Right to Work Automation
Integrates with IDVT-certified identity verification providers. Checks Share Codes, BRP cards, and EU Settlement Scheme status automatically.
Healthcare & Care Sector Pack
Manages enhanced DBS, professional registration (NMC, HCPC, GMC), indemnity insurance, and annual health declarations for every clinical worker.
Expiry Calendar & Auto-Renewal
Every document expiry tracked. Automated alerts sent to workers and consultants 90, 30, and 7 days in advance. Prevents lapses entirely.
Audit-Ready Document Store
Encrypted document vault with full audit trail. Timestamped, version-controlled, and instantly downloadable for inspections.
Reference Chasing on Autopilot
Sends, chases, and logs professional references via a secure online form. Follows up daily until responses received — without any human input.
Hard-Stop Before Placement
Connects to your CRM deal stage. Will not allow a placement to complete until all mandatory checks are green. No workarounds. No exceptions.
