National Police Check

Disability is an occupation that has the responsibility of caring for and supporting the health and wellbeing of our vulnerable individuals. Caring for such people is a full-time and sensitive job. People employed in such positions of caring for our clients are required to have a current Police check.

The Australian Government by enabling the Police Check requirements ensures that the health, safety, and rights of the vulnerable persons in the community are not infringed upon. Police Checks aim to strengthen the meticulous employment process for the vulnerable in Australia.

h&h trainers and staff will assist you in completing and obtaining your police check.
