[1] Other states in Australia have a similar working with children check, but are not called a "blue card".
We check and monitor people who work in these industries and help organisations to create safe environments for children.
The blue card system is regulated by 2 pieces of legislation: the Working with Children (Risk Management and Screening) Act 2000 (the act) and the Working with Children (Risk Management and Screening) Regulation 2020.
The blue card system contributes to the creation of safe service environments for children in various ways.
Just as each piece of a jigsaw comes together to make a complete picture, the same applies to the blue card system.
