Overview: Working with children and vulnerable groups screening checks

This resource sheet from the Australian Institute of Family Studies gives an overview of the different screening checks required by people who engage with vulnerable groups such as children in employment or volunteer activities in Australia. It has information about Working With Children Checks (WWCC), Working With Vulnerable People Checks (WWVPC) and Police Checks in the different states and territories.

We acknowledge the many Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and honour their Elders past and present.

We respect their deep enduring connection to their lands, waterways, and surrounding clan groups since time immemorial. We cherish the richness of First Nations peoples’ artistic and cultural expressions. We are privileged to gather on this Country and to share knowledge, culture and art, now and with future generations.
