NDIS Worker Screening Policy and Risk Management Plan Template for small NDIS providers

To protect participants, the NDIS (Practice Standards – Worker Screening) Rules 2018, as amended (the Rules) require NDIS providers to have a policy and processes in place to screen workers and other personnel. Among other things, the Rules require that:

  • providers have a policy to protect people with disability;
  • providers conduct risk assessment on each role to determine whether safety clearances (including checks for criminal offences and working with children checks) under the Rules are required;
  • certain workers and others personnel be screened, including key personnel and workers who have direct contact with NDIS participants;
  • providers take reasonable steps to make sure that people working with them under subcontracting arrangements have appropriate clearances for personnel who will be working with them; and
  • providers keep adequate records of role risk assessments, worker clearances and subcontractor contracts containing clearance-related clauses for other personnel, and that providers keep them for seven years so that the NDIA, auditors and others can check they are following the Rules.

This 12-page policy is drafted to help small providers to address the requirements of the Rules, including by establishing records to prove compliance with the Rules. It is drafted conservatively, with a “no clearance-no work” approach to protect small NDIS providers and participants.
