From July 2019, an NDIS Worker Screening Check will be required of all people in ‘risk assessed roles’ employed or ‘otherwise engaged’ in the disability sector.

This member-exclusive webcast examines what these terms (and others) mean in the context of one of the NDIS Commission’s key measures to safeguard NDIS participants; processes for the short-term employment of people pending completion of a screening check; how the responsibilities for worker screening of the states and federal governments are distributed; and the detail of transitional arrangements applying in SA and NSW until mid-2019.
