For NDIS providers in Western Australia
NDIS compliance software for providers in Western Australia.
The NDIS Commission audits providers in Western Australia against the same Practice Standards as everywhere else, but worker screening runs through the NDIS Worker Screening Unit at the WA Department of Communities, and the evidence an auditor asks for is per worker and per participant. Accorda keeps it current as you work.

Worker screening in Western Australia
NDIS workers in risk-assessed roles need a current NDIS Worker Screening Check, issued through the NDIS Worker Screening Unit at the WA Department of Communities. A clearance is only evidence if you can show it was current on the day of the shift, which means the register has to keep the history, not just today's status. Requirements and agency names change; confirm specifics for your service with the regulator.
- Every NDIS Worker Screening Check tracked per worker with its expiry date
- Reminders before a clearance expires; expiring-soon at a glance
- Renewals keep the previous record, so the history is on file
What is different for Western Australia providers
Western Australian providers deal with the Commission for NDIS matters and with the state's screening unit for workers. Providers that support children also need the WA Working with Children Check, a separate clearance with its own expiry. Distance is the practical issue in WA: workers in regional and remote areas need to acknowledge policies and log incidents from wherever they are, which is why Accorda runs in the browser on a phone.

The audit itself is national
The Practice Standards, the reportable-incident rules and the complaints obligations come from the Commission and apply the same way in every state. Accorda is calibrated to them: policies reviewed against the standards, incidents captured on a phone in plain words with the reportable decision on the record, complaints and risk registers kept from raised to closed, internal audit in plain English, and a one-click evidence pack with every page SHA-256 signed.
On 1 July 2026 the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission began mandatory registration for supported independent living and platform providers, with further support categories announced to follow. Reform timing and scope are subject to ongoing legislation; confirm specifics for your service with the Commission.

Is the NDIS audit different in Western Australia?
