Revolutionising Workforce Compliance Through Collaboration

WorkPro's remarkable achievements can largely be attributed to our understanding that collaboration is key to success. 


No technology is an island.


Just as it takes a village to raise a child, WorkPro recognises that involving key partners is essential to improving the efficiency of recruitment, hiring, onboarding and compliance management. Since its inception in 2007, WorkPro has actively engaged in brainstorming sessions with partners, resulting in groundbreaking transformations in the recruitment landscape. Several of these strategic partnerships have had a lasting impact on the way recruitment is conducted today.


Strategic Partnerships: Pioneering Efficient Recruitment Processes


  • Partnership with Australia's Department of Home Affairs:


WorkPro's partnership with Australia's Department of Home Affairs plays a pivotal role in transforming recruitment practices. As the appointed pilot company to integrate with the visa entitlement verification database in 2010, WorkPro revolutionised work rights checks.


Today, almost all companies that require work rights checks rely on the VEVO platform, which originated from this influential partnership. By collaborating with government agencies, WorkPro ensures the delivery of efficient work rights verification and ongoing monitoring and management that genuinely enhances compliance for employers and streamlining the hiring process and candidates gaining employment without delay.


  • Collaboration with the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC) for Police Checks:


WorkPro's partnership with ACIC since 2011 transformed the administration and approval of police checks. WorkPro digitised the application process which dramatically reduced processing delays for all parties, and the seamless integration allows customers to include criminal checks as a key mandatory probity check, confident that results are routinely available within a secure portal within the hour, not days, reducing the time to hire, drop-out rates and significantly reducing hiring risk.

  • Working with Subject Matter Experts and Work Health and Safety Authorities:


Recognising the importance of workplace safety and compliance led WorkPro to establish strong collaborative relationships with subject matter experts including work safety practitioners, lawyers, and privacy and security experts to develop and maintain our comprehensive eLearning library. This proactive approach enables WorkPro customers to establish relevant and tailored training programs for their workforce that ensures adherence to compliance and regulations while prioritising the well-being of employees.


  • Partnership with Specialist platforms and Service Providers


By continuously improving its integrated platform and understanding the unique requirements of various industries, we recognise the significance of including services like Medical Checks and Reference Checks in WorkPro’s One Dashboard. While we acknowledge that not one company can specialise in all areas of compliance, we invest in building strong relationships with industry-leading compliance experts.


To achieve this, WorkPro has forged a valuable partnership with Jobfit, a reputable occupational health services company. This collaboration enables the WorkPro platform to seamlessly integrate easily manageable medical checks into our dashboard, offering a comprehensive range of occupational health assessments that ensure employees are fit for work.


Additionally, WorkPro has joined forces with Referoo, empowering recruiters and HR teams to conduct reference checks online within minutes, all within the secure WorkPro platform. This efficient and cost-effective solution further solidifies WorkPro's commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its customers and staying ahead of specialist compliance requirements before they become mainstream demands.


Breaking Down Silos: Bringing Recruitment, HR and Compliance Together


Traditionally, HR processes were siloed, with separate tools for applicant tracking, onboarding, and other HR functions. WorkPro challenges this siloed approach by simply integrating with existing Recruitment, Applicant Tracking Systems and other people-powered platforms. Facilitating cohesive integration allows for the seamless flow of data across an organization, fostering powerful hiring, fast mobilisation and re-deployment across different business functions.


WorkPro's commitment to collaboration is further exemplified by its partnership with Workato, a leading automation and integration platform. This collaboration expedites the implementation of integrations, enabling WorkPro to connect effortlessly with a wide range of HR systems and applications used by its users. 


Our recent integration with JobAdder demonstrates the speed and possibility when proper connectivity is deployed. Now, WorkPro and JobAdder provides users with convenient access to comprehensive background checks, reference checking, licence/ticket accreditation management, eLearning, and compliance monitoring tools within the JobAdder platform.


Expanding Integration Capabilities to Power Future Innovations


With the key staffing integrations with Bullhorn, CTC People, Expr3ss!, FastTrack, Jobadder, PageUp, Smart Recruiter, and Powerhouse complete, WorkPro is actively expanding its integration capabilities by forging partnerships with global industry leaders including SuccessFactors, Salesforce, and Workday, highlighting our commitment to leveraging proven technologies to enhance the recruitment process. By staying at the forefront of the HR industry,


WorkPro ensures that its customers gain a competitive edge in talent acquisition and workforce compliance management.

WorkPro's success can be attributed to its collaborative approach and commitment to integration. By partnering with key stakeholders, government agencies, subject matter experts, leading integration platforms like Workato, and the most simplified Applicant Tracking System such as JobAdder, WorkPro has revolutionised recruitment, hiring, and onboarding processes.

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.
