How to: Set up Police Checking

Choose who needs a police check, how long it's valid, and invite trainees manually.

Summary: Safe Ministry Check integrates volunteer and employee police checks through our partner checked.com.au. You can require police checks automatically for certain people, or invite individual trainees manually.

Set your police check requirements

  1. Go to Settings > Organisation Settings.

  2. Scroll down to Police Background Checking and Verification.

  3. Under Require Police Checks, choose who needs to complete a police check.

  4. In the box below it, choose how often a police check needs updating (from every 12 months to every 5 years, or only once).


​Note: Choosing No Police Check required for any trainee type means no trainee will automatically be required to complete a police check to be cleared, but you can still invite individual people to complete one.
​

Invite a trainee manually

  1. Open the trainee's profile.

  2. Scroll down to the Police Check section and click Update.

  3. Click Email Police Check Invite.

The trainee receives an email inviting them to complete a police check through checked.com.au. Once they receive their result, have them email you a copy and you can then record their status on their profile.
