Blue cards for disability work

You will need a blue card if you:

• provide disability services to a child with disability
• carry out risk-assessed National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) work for an NDIS service provider in relation to a child with disability.

Under this category, you don't need a blue card if you are a:

• person with disability who is employed at a place where you also receive NDIS supports/services or other disability services
• secondary school student on work experience who carries out disability-related work under the direct supervision of a person who holds a blue or exemption card (restricted persons cannot rely on this exemption)
• volunteer who is a relative of a person who receives NDIS supports/services or other disability services, and is only at the place to help with the care of that person (restricted persons cannot rely on this exemption).
