This page guides you through the creation of new employee qualifications and the management of employee compliance records.

Introduction

Employee Compliance is managed through the Compliance Check data-grid that is located within the header of the employee record. The compliance records listed within the Compliance Check data-grid are determined on the employee’s role.

Additional comment

The NDIS Quality and Safeguards commission has outlined the importance of NDIS providers employing staff that have the necessary skills, experience and qualifications to deliver the supports and services that are available through their employer. Employee compliance is not only ensuring those qualifications have been sighted but they continue to remain current.

To ensure safe and skillful service delivery by the NDIS service provider is through ensuring you are employing staff that have the qualifications required as well as necessary competencies for the role and the appropriate approvals from necessary government agencies and authorities.

As a provider there is a Duty of Care to your NDIS clients to ensure that anyone that is employed has the necessary skills, experience and qualifications, thereby minimizing any risk of harm or the occurrence of negligent conduct. Compliance can range from WWCC, Police Clearance, CPR and first aid certificates, certificates from TAFE in the areas of disability support or community support, manual handling, safe work practices, certification on the NDIS or COVID-19 training modules.
