Continuous monitoring of checks

After an NDIS Worker Check clearance is granted, information sources, including SA Police and the Department for Child Protection, are monitored for any new information relevant to a person's check status. Also, the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and authorities in other states and territories notify the Screening Unit if an NDIS Worker Check holder commits certain offences in their jurisdiction.

If new information means a person's clearance status is changed or revoked, the person and known organisations will be notified.

Cancel your NDIS Worker Check

You can ask to cancel your NDIS Worker Check clearance at any time.

We cannot cancel the clearance if:
