But for work in the UK...
Quote:
Employers are required to keep a photocopy of the passports of all employees proving right to work in the UK for the whole time the person is in their employment and for 2 years after they leave. The Border Agency can ask to see it and if the employer cannot produce it they could be prosecuted.
