Overview of the Platform

2.1 The Application operates as a platform that allows Centres to interact with and recruit or engage Workers. Z Recruitment is not a partner of the Centre or Workers but engages both Workers and Centres through separate contracts and facilitates their interaction on the Application. An initial interview may have already been carried out prior to You being able to access the Platform. If an interview has been carried out, Your (or Your company’s) access to the Platform has been granted on the basis the information provided at such interview is accurate. In the event that We discover that this is not the case, your access may be suspended.

2.2 As the Application acts only as a platform for Centres and Workers to interact, Z Recruitment is not, and does not become, a party to any contractual relationship between the Centre and the Worker but guides their relationship through its own contractual relationship with each party.

2.3 Save as set out in these Terms and Conditions, We do not mediate between the Centre and the Worker in the event of any dispute arising between them. Where a complaint is made, Z Recruitment will investigate the complaint in order to determine whether there has been a breach of the Terms and Conditions (or the relevant contractual agreement with Z Recruitment) and make a determination in this regard. Whilst Z Recruitment will provide its opinion on any dispute and only enforce its rights so far as they relate to the engagement of either party with Z Recruitment, should there be any further disputes or causes of action, Z Recruitment will refrain from participating and will not be a party to any dispute.

2.4 We may add, remove or change the Service, including its features, its functions and Our content, from time to time, at our absolute discretion without notice to You.

2.5 These Terms and Conditions relate to the use of Our Platform. Centres and Workers must only engage on the terms as outlined in the relevant contractor agreement with Z

Recruitment and as otherwise permitted by the Platform. Where a Worker and Centre engage each other on terms outside of those outlined in the Platform and outside of the contractual engagement with Z Recruitment, subject to the relevant contractor agreement, the terms and conditions of such engagement shall be as agreed between such parties but subject always to any fees payable pursuant to the relevant contractor agreement with Z Recruitment. In such instances, the Platform will require that certain terms and conditions be agreed, including:

i). Providing information to Z Recruitment, such as the duration of the engagement, including the date and time of when the services are to start and finish;

ii). The Venue(s) at which the engagement will take place; and

iii). Whether the Worker is to be paid award rates of pay or above award rates of pay and what those rates are.

Working with Children, ACECQA and Visa requirements

3.1 Laws in each State and Territory govern and limit the ability of persons to work at Centres and be involve in child-related work. These laws require that Workers have certain qualifications and undergo identity, background and criminal checks that are commonly referred to as working with children checks.

3.2 It is important to be aware that a working with children check in one State or Territory will not necessarily be valid for use in another State or Territory and that these checks expire after a certain period of time. Qualification requirements also differ between States. There is significant difference between the laws of each State and Territory. Whilst we make all efforts to carry out preliminary investigations, it is the responsibility of Centres and Workers to check and comply with the laws which apply to them.

3.3 If a Worker’s profile states that they have a working with children check, are ACECQA qualified or have a valid working visa We do not guarantee that such check is valid or current. Centres are strongly recommended to check that any Worker has a valid working with children check for their State or Territory, has relevant qualifications and valid visa engaging that Worker.

(a) Notwithstanding the above, We may, in our absolute discretion, require a Worker to provide evidence of their compliance with any working with children check, ACECQA and visa requirement and suspend and/or terminate a User’s Account where such evidence is not provided.

(b) If you are a Worker, you consent to us and any Centre undertaking checks in order to determine any visa and/or working with children status, including with the VEVO database maintained by the Australian Department of Home Affairs.
