If you have permission to work in the UK, you generally have the same basic employment protections as other workers, including rights to the National Minimum Wage, payslips, paid holiday and protection from discrimination. Your employer should provide written information about your main terms and must follow rules on working time, rest breaks and workplace safety. Your visa may restrict the type or amount of work you can do, so check its conditions and your right-to-work status. GOV.UK and Acas provide guidance, while a solicitor regulated by the SRA can advise on a specific dispute.
