Child Protection Workers

1028 Ms STINSON (Badcoe) (3 July 2019). How many case managers have been employed by Department for Child Protection who hold bachelor degree (Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), level 7) but excluding a bachelor degree in social work since 1 May 2018?

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection): I have been advised:

All case managers require a degree in a professional discipline, so as to be eligible for employment as a Professional Officer, as outlined in the South Australian Modern Public Sector Enterprise Agreement—Salaried 2017, in a discipline outlined in the Commissioner's Determination 5. All case managers employed under the PO stream hold or exceed the designated minimum qualification for their role.
