Answer 5 - What are our responsibilities as a sponsor? Sponsors must monitor and report on their sponsored workers, maintain accurate records, and comply with immigration laws. Failure to fulfil these duties can result in penalties, including losing the sponsor license. Employers may be breaking the law if they fail to make all of the correct checks when employing international workers. All employers must undertake employment checks before any licence or certificate is applied for.
