Brexit: Evidence of Settled or Pre-settled status

Hi everyone

I've been looking for information on this and haven't seen any updates since February 2020 - I guess this is because we became so consumed with Covid.

I have been trying to understand if HR and people professionals are requesting proof of status from their EU colleagues.  I understand that we should:

  • Ask colleagues their intentions to stay in the UK post-June 2021
  • Ask colleagues if they have applied or plan to apply for either settled or pre-settled status
  • Ask if they require any assistance.

However, what I cannot see is if there is a requirement on the part of the employer to keep evidence of their status and if so what is the evidence that we should store? I know that this will be a requirement when EU nationals join our UK team post December 2020.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
