What shows up on a National Police Check Victoria?

A National Police Check in Victoria gives a detailed record of your criminal history, if any. The information included in a National Police Check Victoria usually consists of:

However, a National Police Check Victoria does not include minor traffic violations, immature convictions (depending upon criteria), or any charges that have been reserved or let go. This detailed background check is an important tool for employers and organizations to guarantee the safety and integrity of their operations

Police Checks and Working With Children Checks in Victoria

If your role in Victoria involves working with children — teaching, coaching, childcare, or youth and community programs — it’s worth knowing that a National Police Check and a Working With Children Check (WWCC) are two separate products. A National Police Check lists your disclosable court outcomes as at the date it was issued. A Victorian WWCC, applied for through Service Victoria and issued by the Department of Justice and Community Safety, results in an actual pass/fail clearance and is continuously monitored for its full 5-year term. If your position is legally defined as child-related work, a National Police Check on its own won’t meet that requirement — you’ll need a valid WWCC as well.

It’s also worth noting that Victoria’s Spent Convictions Act 2021 means certain older convictions won’t appear on a standard police check unless a specific exemption applies — WWCC and NDIS worker screening checks aren’t covered by the same protections. Offences prosecuted by a body other than Victoria Police, such as EPA Victoria matters, also generally won’t show up on a standard check.
Real-World Example

A Melbourne-based aged care provider onboarding new support workers needs a current National Police Check before rostering staff into resident-facing shifts — and because aged care roles carry higher compliance risk, most providers won’t accept a check older than 3 months. Rapid Screening’s 1–2 hour turnaround means new hires can be cleared and rostered on the same day they’re offered the role, instead of sitting in a compliance queue for a week.
