Mater is required to comply with the Working with Children (Risk Management and Screening Act) 2000 (the Act) which requires certain categories of employees, volunteers and students (who work with children) to have a Blue Card.
Employees must show evidence of holding a Working With Children Check Positive Notice (Blue Card) if it is a condition of employment outlined in their employment contract.
PLEASE NOTE: From 31 August 2020, Blue Card applicants will not be able to begin paid employment in Queensland while their application is pending, with the commencement of the ‘No Card, No Start’ policy.
It is an offence for a disqualified person or negative notice holder to sign a blue card application form.
