Built for UK small businesses

Staff compliance for pharmacies — right-to-work and beyond

Pharmacies must maintain compliance not just with right-to-work law, but also with professional registrations and GPhC requirements. KornerIQ tracks expiry dates across all documents — visa permissions, GPhC registrations, training certificates — and alerts you before anything lapses.

Sound familiar?

  • GPhC registration expiry dates not tracked centrally — risking a lapsed registration going unnoticed
  • Locum right-to-work checks not documented properly
  • No system for logging mandatory training completion dates
  • Staff holiday managed on a whiteboard — no audit trail
  • Multiple locums and part-time staff make tracking complex

KornerIQ replaces all of this with one dashboard — built for the way UK small businesses actually run.

Frequently asked questions

Do pharmacies need to check the right to work of locums?

Yes. The right-to-work duty applies to all workers, including locums, whether they come through an agency or direct. If a locum is engaged directly, you must conduct the check. If through a recruitment agency, the agency must conduct the check — but you should obtain written confirmation that they have done so.

How do I track GPhC registration expiry dates?

GPhC registrations must be renewed annually. A pharmacist or pharmacy technician with a lapsed registration cannot legally work in that role. KornerIQ tracks each team member registration expiry date and sends alerts at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before expiry — so no registration lapses unnoticed.

What happens if a pharmacy technician right-to-work check is not done?

Without a valid right-to-work check, you have no statutory excuse. If the worker is later found to have no right to work in the UK, you face a civil penalty of up to £60,000 per worker — and potentially criminal prosecution if the court finds you knew.
