NDIS Worker Screening Rules ss 20 and 21 (seven years)
The worker list is kept in a form that lets an auditor tell which workers were in risk assessed roles on any given day in the previous seven years (s 20), and every record under Part 3 is kept for seven years from the date it is made (s 21). A former registered provider must keep records it was required to keep for three years after ceasing to be registered (NDIS Act s 73R).
