##### Regulation 9 — Management and recruitment

- (2)(a)(b) Written references from a past employer or other source were not available in respect of two members of staff employed in the service. One member of staff was in their induction period and the other had recently commenced working in the service. It was the practice of the service to request references after the induction period. This was discussed with staff responsible for recruitment at the time of the inspection as the requirement is that references be acquired and validated before staff begin working in the service. (d) Police vetting had not been applied for or acquired in respect of the member of staff who had lived outside the state for a period exceeding six consecutive months. (3) References had not been acquired and validated in relation to two members of staff prior to them being appointed, assigned or allowed access to a child in the service

- (2)(a) One of the employees is no longer a member of staff in our service and references have been acquired in respect of the second member of staff. All vetting procedures, including acquiring and validating references will be carried out prior to staff being employed in the service. (d) The employee is no longer a member of staff in our service. In future, all police checks will be carried out before staff begin working in the service

Found compliant: Regulation 10, 11, 19, 23.
