Working With Children
The Working with Children (WWC) Check is a compulsory screening strategy for people engaging in child-related work in Western Australia (WA) and the Christmas and Cocos (Keeling) Islands. There are a few exemptions. All the details can be found below.
Working with Children Check - Who needs a WWC Check?
Certain people do not require a WWC Check because they fit within the description of an exemption from child-related work as outlined in the Working with Children (Screening) Act 2004(link is external) and the Working with Children (Screening) Regulations 2005(link is external).
​
There are some general exemptions which apply across all categories of child-related work while others are specific to a particular category or circumstance.
​
If a person’s work is covered by an 'exemption', then they are ineligible to apply for a WWC Check. However, it is important to consider all the work a person does when deciding whether they are exempt and do not require a WWC Check.
