Frequently asked questions

Is Worker Checks legitimate and ACIC-accredited?

Yes. Worker Checks is an accredited body of the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC), authorised to process Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Checks. You can verify this on the ACIC accredited bodies list.

How much does a police check cost?

A volunteer NCCHC starts at $21 and an employment NCCHC is $52. There are no hidden fees, and the price is confirmed before you pay.

How fast are results returned?

Around 80% of checks are returned within 1–3 minutes. The remaining 20% may be referred for ACIC manual review, which can take up to 15 business days — this happens with every accredited provider, because the review is done by ACIC, not the provider.

Is the check accepted Australia-wide?

Yes. An NCCHC is a national check recognised by employers, licensing bodies and volunteer organisations across every state and territory.

Can businesses manage multiple workers?

Yes. BusinessHub lets organisations onboard workers in bulk, track compliance status, and receive expiry alerts for NCCHCs, NDIS Worker Screening, Working With Children Checks and more.

How is my identity data protected?

Worker Checks uses private blockchain certificate security and Australian-hosted infrastructure to protect identity data and detect tampering. There’s no cryptocurrency, token or public-chain exposure — just cryptographic integrity for compliance-critical records.

Reviews

Testimonial from a happy customer!

“All done and paid for. Thanks again…you are awesome. When I started this process I never thought anyone would want to help. Thanks so much, in light of all that’s going on in the world especially in America, you have restored our faith in being human, being a good human being.”

“Please look us up and email us if you ever in Brissie. We would love to return the goodwill.”

-Christina R, Brisbane

Testimonial from Disability Worker:

“What we love about Worker Checks is that we might be asked to pay for a new police check when we had one a month ago. From my personal portal I can share my profile with a new employer and they can see my last police check.”

Testimonial from an agency engaging contractors:

“A number of our contractors have come from overseas and not been in Australia long. The ability to have them screened internationally and in Australia is an absolute necessity for my clients. In addition we can see the VISA status and will get alerts when their right to work expires, covering our own backside. A great system.”
