Auditor-General's Report

In reply to Mrs HURN (Schubert) (1 November 2023).

The Hon. C.J. PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

CALHN advises that as at 15 January 2024, of 4,274 employees identified as requiring a working with children check, a total of 142 employees (3 per cent) have no CHRIS payroll record indicating a current working with children check. Additionally, of 157 employees identified as requiring an aged-care check, a total of 11 employees (7 per cent) do not have a current aged-care check indicated on their payroll record. These figures include current employees who are absent on leave.

CALHN is actively working to confirm updated screenings for these employees and to update the CHRIS payroll system with confirmed records.

These figures include both employees who do not have the relevant check recorded in CHRIS or have an expired check recorded in CHRIS and excludes employees in Statewide Clinical Support Services.
