FAQs Answered by Our Greenstaff Medical UK Compliance Team

FAQs Answered by Our Greenstaff Medical UK Compliance Team

A seamless experience onboarding is what we strive for here at Greenstaff UK. A part of this is having all the relevant information you need to ensure that when you join us, you know what to expect. So, we’ve compiled a guide to some of the most frequently asked questions directed at our compliance team. We hope this will provide the information you need as you consider working with us.

1. Do You Offer Sponsorship?

One of the most common questions we receive is about sponsorship. At this time, we do not offer sponsorships for healthcare roles. We understand that healthcare professionals from across the globe are interested in working in the UK, but our focus remains on recruiting qualified candidates who already have the right to work here. This approach allows us to operate efficiently, ensuring that we meet our clients' needs promptly and remain compliant with UK employment and immigration laws.

We know this might be disappointing to some overseas healthcare workers. However, we advise potential candidates to seek out visa options independently and stay updated on immigration requirements through official government resources.

2. Where Is Your Work Based?

Another frequent query involves the locations of our job assignments. The good news is that Greenstaff Medical UK operates across various regions throughout the country, offering a wide range of opportunities to suit different preferences and specialties.

The exact location of each job depends on the division and the type of assignment. For example, some roles may be based in bustling urban centers, while others may take place in quieter rural settings. To give you an accurate idea of where a job is based, we provide clear and detailed information about each post directly on our website. We encourage you to regularly check our job ads to find roles that match your desired location and area of expertise.

Our goal is to ensure that healthcare professionals are fully informed about job locations before applying, so they can make the best decisions for their work-life balance and career aspirations.

3. What Are Your Rates?

We understand that knowing the pay rates is a crucial factor when deciding to work with a staffing agency. Therefore, we are transparent about our compensation structure, although the rates do vary depending on several factors. These factors include the role, the specialty, the location, and the type of shift (such as day, night, or weekend shifts).

To make it easier for you, all rate information is clearly outlined in the job ads on our site. This transparency ensures that you have all the details before committing to a role, and there are no surprises when it comes to pay. We believe that fair compensation is essential, and we strive to offer competitive rates that reflect the skills and dedication of healthcare professionals.

If you have questions about rates for a specific role, our team is always available to provide further clarity or discuss any concerns.

4. Do You Accept Overseas Applicants?

We are often asked if we accept applications from healthcare professionals outside the UK. At present, we do not accept overseas applicants. This policy is in place to ensure we adhere to UK regulations and maintain efficient operations when fulfilling our clients' staffing needs.

Our roles are open exclusively to professionals who are already authorised to work in the UK. This means you must possess the appropriate documentation, such as settled or pre-settled status, a valid UK work visa, or UK citizenship. This requirement helps us quickly place candidates in roles where they can make a real difference.

For overseas applicants interested in working in the UK, we recommend researching independent visa options and monitoring updates from UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI).

5. Do You Take Limited Companies?

Another important question revolves around whether Greenstaff Medical UK works with limited companies. Currently, we do not engage with limited companies. Instead, we work directly with individual healthcare professionals.

This decision is rooted in our commitment to maintaining a straightforward and compliant hiring process. By avoiding the complexities associated with limited companies, we ensure smoother experience for both our healthcare professionals and the facilities we serve. This policy also aligns with our compliance requirements, allowing us to operate within the legal framework set by the UK government.

We know that some healthcare professionals prefer working through limited companies for tax or other reasons, but our current model focuses on direct contracts, ensuring fair and compliant practices.
