23.01.2022 Important legislative changes you need to know. Drugs or alcohol may place your NDIS provider contract at risk. As of July 1, 2019 the mandatory requirements have now changed for registered NDIS providers as specified in Practice Standards Worker Screening Rules 2018 must ensure that workers have an appropriate check as a mandatory requirement of NDIS provider registration. This guarantees that key personnel and workers in roles delivering specified NDIS supports or specifi...ed NDIS services, or with more than incidental contact with people with disability, do not pose an unacceptable risk to the safety and wellbeing of NDIS participants. Prior to undertaking screening, AusHealth Work can advise on policy; education for your supervisors and team; drug and alcohol testing schedules; and support to introduce return to work testing schedules for affected personnel. Are You NDIS Ready? 23 Oct 2019 Category: DRUGS AND ALCOHOL, DETECTION. Tagged: DRUG TESTING. Worker screening requirements (NDIS registered providers) Registered NDIS providers must ensure that particular workers have an appropriate check as a mandatory requirement of NDIS provider registration. This guarantees that key personnel and workers in roles delivering specified NDIS supports or specified NDIS services, or with more than incidental contact with people with disability, do not pose an unacceptable risk to the safety and wellbeing of NDIS participants. Worker screening is only one of a range of strategies registered NDIS providers need to put in place to identify and minimise risk of harm to people with disability. Registered NDIS providers must also actively promote a culture that does not tolerate abuse, neglect or exploitation, and focuses on continuous upskilling, education and training for workers. Providers delivering supports in the Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory, Queensland, Tasmania, and Victoria From 1 July 2019, the NDIS Commission is now responsible for the registration of NDIS providers delivering supports and services to participants in the Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory, Queensland, Tasmania, and Victoria. Registered NDIS providers who deliver NDIS supports and services New South Wales and South Australia have been required to meet the NDIS Commission’s requirements since 1 July 2018. Registered NDIS providers in all states and territories (except for Western Australia) have responsibilities and obligations in relation to screening their workers under the NDIS Commission. These are set out in the NDIS (Practice Standards Worker Screening) Rules 2018.
