One Expired Document.
One Failed Inspection.
One Very Bad Week.

Crewlix compliance dashboard displaying employee right-to-work documents, DBS checks, and expiry alerts

Most UK businesses still track staff compliance documents in one of three ways: a shared spreadsheet, an email folder, or somebody’s memory, but all three carry the same risk. A document expires on a Tuesday, nobody notices, and by Wednesday, you are explaining it to a CQC inspector, a Home Office auditor, or a client who trusted you to get compliance right.

The consequences are real too: a care home with expired Right to Work documentation can face a civil penalty of up to £60,000 per illegal worker, a sponsor licence holder with unmonitored visa expiry dates can lose their licence overnight, and a recruitment agency with lapsed DBS certificates can lose a client contract the same day.

Crewlix removes the risk, not by adding another spreadsheet, but by replacing it with a system that watches the dates for you.

Custom Compliance Labels That Match Your Business

Every business has its own mix of checks and certificates, and trying to force them into generic categories makes it easy to miss something important. With Crewlix, you create custom document labels that fit your company’s compliance needs — Right to Work, DBS, training, visas, licences, and more.

Record Issue & Expiry Dates Where They Matter

Guessing expiry dates or digging through email chains is both stressful and dangerous. In Crewlix, you record issue and expiry dates for documents that do expire at the point of upload, and the system uses those dates to monitor risk for you.

Add issue and expiry dates of a document during upload.

Keep previous documents stored without cluttering.

30 days before expiry: Follow-up reminder to keep renewals on track.

7 days before expiry: Final weekly reminder before daily notifications begin.
