It's Booster Time and We're Ready To Go

Almost 50,000 candidates have uploaded their vaccination details to the WorkPro platform since late October last year! Our aim was to provide customers with an easy to implement solution that made vaccination status management stress free. Looking at these numbers, it certainly seems we’ve achieved that.

We’ve been carefully monitoring the Covid-19 vaccination situation and health advice as it becomes available and are pleased to release the booster feature as part of our Vaccination Status Management function.

Check out this informative video with WorkPro CEO Tania Evans demonstrating how it works and here’s a little lowdown of the finer details:

Send a candidate request inviting them to provide vaccination details, along with an Exemption Form or the Digital Certificate.
View the details, produce a date/time stamp verification certificate for audit purposes, and either retain or destroy the Digital Certificate to maintain privacy obligations.
The booster feature automates candidate emails in line with the State recommended timeframes, gently reminding them of their eligibility for the booster and encouraging them to log in to WorkPro to update their status and upload their latest Certificate. We’ll send three reminders and send you a weekly report showing the candidates that have updated their vaccination information.

This update went live earlier this week and it’s great to see it already assisting so many. We’ll continue to monitor the situation and make any further upgrades as necessary to ensure you can easily maintain your compliance and keep your workforce safe and healthy.

Background Checks in the Childcare sector : A Wake-Up Call for the Sector

By Ziggy Dequito • September 4, 2025

Background Checks in the Childcare sector : A Wake-Up Call for the Sector The early childhood sector is under national scrutiny again. This time, it's not just policy driving change, but public outcry. On 20 August 2025, Victoria released findings from its rapid review into early childhood safety, following disturbing revelations of serious abuse at multiple childcare services (The Guardian). The review found systemic failures in background screening and regulatory enforcement, prompting the state to announce a major overhaul of its child safety laws. Among the key issues: a childcare worker with a history of criminal behaviour was cleared to work, and multiple abuse allegations were mishandled due to poor internal reporting systems (ABC News). The Victorian Government has accepted all 21 review recommendations, including increased unannounced inspections, faster suspension powers, and mandatory public disclosure of breaches (Wyndham TV). While this latest case occurred in Victoria, the same risks exist elsewhere. That’s why the national reforms introduced earlier this year — from harmonised Working with Children Checks to compulsory child protection training — are more than just updates. They’re essential safeguards. With greater legal consequences for non-compliance, now is the time for childcare providers to ensure their employee screening, training, and reporting systems are watertight — because families, regulators, and the law are watching.
