The state where you intend to work will determine the type of state screening(s) you may need to hold. Examples of state screenings are a Working with Children Check or a Working with Vulnerable People Check.
To support people in Queensland you will need to hold the following, depending on the age group you want to support:
If you want to support people over 18 years of age only, you will need to hold an NDIS Worker Screening or a Yellow Card issued before the 1st of February, 2021.
If you want to support someone under 18 years of age only, you will need to hold a Paid Blue Card issued before the 1st of February, 2021 or hold a Paid Blue Card issued after the 1st of February, 2021 and an NDIS Worker Screening.
If you want to support people of all ages, you will need to hold both a Paid Blue Card and an NDIS Worker Screening, or, a Paid Blue Card and Yellow Card both issued before the 1st of February, 2021.
As our Support Workers are paid employees of Hireup, we cannot accept a Volunteer Blue and/or Yellow Card.
