Amendments introduced by the NSW Government in October 2014 affect all people working with children.
These amendments are the:
- Child Protection Legislation Amendment Act 2014
- Child Protection (Working with Children) Amendment Regulation 2014
The existing laws and these amendments make up the Working with Children Check (WWCC) policy.
All employees who come into contact with children must complete a WWCC. The goal of these laws is to keep children safe and protected.
AMEB (NSW)'s procedures fully comply with the legislation. This ensures that all examiners and supervisors are suitable to work with children.
