Are you ready to be a Child Safe Organisation?

Does your organisation work with children or provide services and spaces for them? If so, Queensland’s new child safeguarding law applies to you.

The Child Safe Organisations system aims to protect children from harm when they interact with businesses and organisations. Under the law, businesses and organisations providing services or spaces for children are required to introduce 10 Child Safe Standards, and some will also be required to introduce a Reportable Conduct Scheme.

The law has already commenced for some sectors and once fully rolled out will apply to over 40,000 businesses and organisations across Queensland.

To help you prepare, the Queensland Family and Child Commission has developed resources to help businesses and organisations prepare for the change and meet their obligations under the system. These include implementation guidelines to help you understand:

the 10 Child Safe Standards and the Universal Principle
how your policies and processes should look once you have successfully implemented them
the documents and actions you need to demonstrate compliance with the new laws.

Every organisation will be at a different stage on its journey to being child safe. To help you determine your level of readiness, the Commission has also developed a self-assessment tool, which will help you identify the actions you need to take.

Start work today to help build a culture of safety and wellbeing for all children in Queensland. You can find information on if and when you need to comply, as well as guidelines and toolkits to help you implement the Standards, on the Queensland Family and Child Commission website at www.qfcc.qld.gov.au/childsafe.
