Last Wednesday marked an important milestone in strengthening safeguarding across Queensland, with the commencement of the Reportable Conduct Scheme.
The scheme requires organisations working with children and young people to identify, report and investigate concerns about worker conduct that may pose a risk to children. It applies to an estimated 10,000 organisations across Queensland, including early childhood education and care, government departments, accommodation and residential services, schools and hospitals, religious bodies, services for children with disability, and those working in youth justice and child protection.
All QB Churches now need to comply with the requirements of the Reportable Conduct Scheme.
