As an employer/volunteer co-ordinator can I make a “blanket policy” that all staff have a WWC Check even though some do not have contact with children?
When deciding who in your organisation needs a WWC Check you must determine if the person’s usual duties of work involve or is likely to involve contact with a child in connection with at least one of the categories of child-related work by using the checklist provided. Organisations should avoid implementing “blanket policies” that require people to apply for a WWC Check based only on job title or place of work. The WWC Screening Unit is able under the legislation to only check people who are in child-related work.
