Policy
Worker screening
Checks for anyone working with women in our programmes.
Draft for board adoption. This policy will be reviewed and adopted by the board at its first meeting, then reviewed every year. Questions? Use our contact form.
Checks before starting
- Identity and right to work in Australia.
- A national police check, renewed every three years.
- A working with children check where any programme may include people under 18.
- For clinicians, current registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, checked on the public register.
- Two referee checks.
- For directors, a check of the banned and disqualified registers.
Records
Results are stored securely, seen only by people who need them, and kept for seven years after someone leaves.
