Other
Conditions: WA Health engages staff in
positions of trust and responsibility. WA Health policies
require applicants to undertake a criminal records screening
and integrity checking as part of the appointment process. As
well as undertaking a criminal record screening and integrity
checking, you may also be required to undertake a working with
children check (if required for the role) and a pre-employment
health assessment. We may ask referees to comment on your
integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please
note that adverse information does not necessarily disqualify
an applicant but will be considered as part of the appointment
process.
Please note this recruitment process
requires completion of satisfactory Pre-Employment Health
Assessment (PEHA). Any offer of employment with WA
Country Health Service (WACHS) is conditional on satisfactory
PEHA to ensure you are able to perform the inherent
requirements of the position. An unsatisfactory PEHA will
result in the offer of employment being withdrawn. Please
see the attached WACHS PEHA Policy for further
information.
Whilst this selection process will
initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be
used to fill other "similar" vacancies throughout the health
service. In addition to this, should the successful applicant
decline or vacate the advertised vacancy, then the next most
suitable applicant may also be selected from this process. Both
of these options remain valid for a period of twelve (12)
months from when the authorised delegate endorses the
