Are a registered address and permission to work the same thing?
No. Address registration, residence permission and employment authorisation serve different purposes. Completing a housing or registration step does not itself authorise the intended job.

What should I check before accepting company accommodation?
Request the address, number of residents, total rent, deposit, deductions, notice terms and what happens when the job ends. Confirm which registration documents the provider supplies.
