The National Living Wage for workers aged 21 and over is £12.50 per hour as of 1 April 2026 according to the latest rates published on GOV.UK. Cleaning staff on zero-hour contracts must receive this rate for every hour worked including travel time between sites.

Do I need a visa or work permit to apply for cleaning staff jobs in the United Kingdom in 2026?
Non-UK nationals must complete a right to work check before starting any cleaning role and can only work if they hold a valid visa such as Skilled Worker or Seasonal Worker permit. The Seasonal Worker visa allows up to 6 months employment in 2026 with a maximum of 3 months per employer. Employers must verify documents via the GOV.UK online service before the first shift.
What documents are required to apply for cleaning staff jobs in the United Kingdom?
Applicants must provide a valid passport or national identity card plus proof of right to work such as a share code from the GOV.UK service or a biometric residence permit. No formal education certificates are required but employers often request a basic DBS check certificate for roles in schools or hospitals. A National Insurance number must be supplied within 8 weeks of starting work.
How many hours per week and how much annual leave do cleaning staff receive in the United Kingdom?
Full-time cleaning contracts are typically 37.5 hours per week with a maximum average of 48 hours under the Working Time Regulations 1998.
