Provider obligations
Providers are required to:
- Identify which roles and jobs need screening
- Submit an application for criminal history screening before a person starts work (Providers must not engage a paid employee unless an application for criminal history screening check has been submitted, and must not engage a volunteer or a student until they have been issued with their Yellow Card)
- Sight 2 original pieces of the person’s identification and sign the application form attesting to have completed this step.
An application for criminal history screening can only be submitted for a person if there is consent, and agreement in place for them to start work with a provider.
Applications are to be emailed to criminalhistoryscreening@disability.qld.gov.au
