The Working with Children (WWC) Check is an initiative of the Victorian Government and is administered by the Department of Justice. The WWC Check helps to protect children from sexual or physical harm by checking a person's criminal history for serious sexual, serious violence or serious drug offences and the persons history with specific professional disciplinary bodies for certain findings. The introduction of the WWC Check creates a mandatory minimum checking standard across Victoria for adults to engage in child-related work as defined in the Working with Children Act 2005.
