Appendix D audit packs — readiness without false certification

When a compliance visit is announced, teams scramble for identity, immigration, employment, and monitoring evidence. A good product builds that pack continuously.

Typical contents

• Organisation and licence snapshot
• Worker sheets with CoS, visa, RTW, documents
• Open and closed reporting duties
• Pre-audit / readiness scores (operational, not legal findings)

Language that stays safe

Use readiness and potential issues for review — never “you are compliant” or “Home Office certified.”
