Right to Work Checks for Australian Employees (VEVO)

If your organization has configured an integration with VEVO, you can review the right to work status and details of employees and request right to work checks in People.

Before You Begin: This functionality is designed to help customers manage compliance with right to work legislation in Australia. Dayforce must be integrated with the Australian government’s right to work verification system, VEVO, to use this topic. See Configure Right to Work Verification (VEVO).

Role feature access: Application Container > People > Employee Profile > Personal > Right to Work Status Indicator > VEVO Integration

A right to work check requires employees to complete the Right to Work Document Upload form (VEVO) and submit certain identifying documents to confirm that they’re eligible to work in Australia.

Work Rights Indicator

When you open the profile of an employee with an Australian pay group assignment, their profile header includes an indicator that shows their work rights, and you can hover over the associated link to view their specific right to work status. See Right to Work Statuses.

In this example, the employee has normal work rights and a status of Australian:

Cursor hovering over right to work link.

Dayforce shows one of the following indicators:

  • Normal ( ): The employee completed a right to work check and was found to have normal work rights.
  • Limited( ): The employee completed a right to work check and has limited work rights.
  • None ( ): The employee has no work rights or the employee hasn't been sent a right to work check yet.

Depending on the status, clicking the indicator link opens a dialog box containing more information about the employee’s right to work:

Check Work Rights dialog box.

Requests for Right to Work Checks

If an employee needs a VEVO right to work check, the dialog box opened by clicking the indicator link shows a message informing you that you need to ask the employee to complete the Right To Work Document Upload form.

Right to Work Identification

When the employee’s supporting documents are acknowledged by VEVO, Dayforce updates the record for the document the employee uploaded in People as proof of their right to work with the additional information from VEVO.

Right to Work Expiry Notifications

You can configure Dayforce to send a notification to an employee and their manager leading up to the date in the Expiry Date field of right to work records in the Identification section of the Personal > Confidential Information screen in People. For example, notifications can be sent every week within thirty days of the record expiring.
