Working with Children
It’s vital that all volunteers involved in working directly with a team (i.e. trainers, managers, coaches) get their Working With Children Check done or renewed. A Working With Children Check is a requirement for people who work or volunteer in child-related work. It involves a national criminal history check and a review of findings of workplace misconduct. The ramifications are high with fines up to 50k.
The process for the check is quite simple.
