What is PPD’s policy on employee eligibility to work in each country?
PPD is subject to the local immigration laws for each of our offices across the world. During the recruitment process, you will be contacted by the recruitment and human resources team to ensure that PPD has the information required on your eligibility to work in that country. Within the U.K., immigration law states that as an employer, PPD must perform a number of checks to ensure all our U.K. employees are eligible to work in the country. All applicants for U.K. positions who have been invited for interview will be asked to bring along proof of this eligibility. These checks ensure PPD complies with its responsibilities under the Points Based System, introduced in 2008. As a business sponsor licensed under the system, PPD is eligible to sponsor migrant workers. Those applications will be considered in line with the UKBA guidelines.
