Reforms risk failing as new data reveals $2.4b child-safety gap

SYDNEY, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Child Safeguarding reforms have a real risk of failing as data exposes a $2.4 billion national cost exposure associated with safeguarding failures, according to new research released by Australia's only continuous credential verification platform, Oho. While government reforms represent critical progress, Oho warns the pace and type of reforms still leave children dangerously exposed, with a three-year timeline and a lack of systems that help employers to comply with reforms. The reforms focus on government data sharing. They do not yet address government to employer data sharing, where the risk exists day to day. New data from 224,000 independent worker records reveals the scale of the problem: between 1 in 434 to 3000 workers currently hold a revoked or suspended clearance, a critical defence that should be stopping them from working with children and vulnerable people.  Around 27% of the national care and education workforce - 1.7 million workers - also cannot be continuously verified due to the existing government registers not being built for a workforce growing, moving and churning at an unprecedented rate. Employers simply can't keep up with 23+ registers requiring huge manual effort, prone to error and risk. The economic cost exposure of these safeguarding failures totals to $2.4 billion annually. The figure was released in a white paper titled "Safeguarding Australia: Strengthening Right-to-Work Systems to Protect Children & Vulnerable People", and incorporates legal, insurance, investigations, productivity, and workforce losses.  Its publication comes as the federal government continues its staged roll out of one of the most broad-reaching overhauls of child and vulnerable-person safeguarding in decades with the "Early Childhood Education and Care (Strengthening Regulation of Early Education) Act 2025" as well as reforms led by Attorney General's on mutually recognising Working with Children Check outcomes across jurisdictions. The paper also reveals that these safeguarding flaws could be resolved by enabling secure and connected government to employer data sharing much like the technology used by the Australian Tax Office to fix payroll issues. Using existing technology it would cost around $70 million a year, according to Oho, which constitutes a fraction of the current $2.4 billion in economic cost exposure. The paper comes as governments are progressing major post-Royal Commission reforms, including Victoria's Rapid Child Safety Review, the Aged Care Act 2024, and Queensland's Child Safe Organisations Act. Since August 2025, 88 new workforce-safety standards have also been endorsed nationally, reflecting strong momentum. Oho says without modern infrastructure to supper real-time verification and real-time insights into worker suitability, even well-intentioned reforms risk failing at the point implementation.  To support the announced reforms, Oho has suggested a national safeguarding systems framework focused on mutual recognition, continuous verification, secure technology integration, transition support for providers, and a stronger culture of prevention from boards to the frontline. Oho is now calling on state and federal governments to work with industry and technologists to ensure reforms are delivered collaboratively, coherently, and in a way that genuinely strengthens the protections for Australia's most vulnerable.  Liv Whitty, CEO of Oho, said: "The reforms are sweeping and ambitious, so will take time to land. So, it's crucial governments identify the parts of the burning problem that can be solved today, with systems and technology designed to protect vulnerable people and employers doing their best to keep them safe." "Government reforms are moving in the right direction, and employers are working hard to meet higher expectations. However, the systems they are being asked to rely on are fragmented, manual and not built for the size, growth and churning shape of the care workforce in Australia. In many organisations, safeguarding still depends on spreadsheets, reminder emails, and one-off checks that simply cannot keep pace with the level of risk in  care and education settings.  "Our analysis shows that between one in 434 workers can be holding a revoked or suspended clearance. The broader economic cost of safeguarding failures runs into the billions every year in legal, insurance, and productivity losses. The human cost is incalculable." "By contrast, enabling, existing, continuous-verification capability between employers and government registers would cost a fraction of what we are already spending on the consequences of failure. For the same investment as a minor line item in a federal budget, we could dramatically reduce the chances that unsuitable people are allowed to work with children and other vulnerable members of the community. "This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to prevent further abuse in plain sight by using standards for industry, set and used by The ATO when they enabled took the headaches out of payroll. By enabling accredited technology partners to integrate data between government systems and employers we can protect millions of Australians who rely on care for their loved ones. Employers still bear the burden of worker suitability proof so this will give them confidence that their workforce remains safe to work every single day." Oho (weareoho.com) is Australia's only continuous credential verification platform, purpose-built to protect children and vulnerable people through near real time screening of workers and volunteers from recruitment, through employment and offboarding. Trusted by over 140 organisations across disability, care and community, Oho has detected over 569 critical safeguarding risks and saved over 110,000 hours in compliance admin. By embedding continuous right-to-work checks into everyday operations, Oho is helping create safer environments for all Australians.

Singapore Employers Remain Cautious About Career Gaps as Hiring Confidence Falls and Demand for Skills Evidence Rises

SINGAPORE, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite Singapore's low unemployment rate of around 2.1 percent, a new study by Reeracoen and Rakuten Insight shows that employers remain cautious when evaluating mid-career candidates, applicants with career gaps, and those who have been unemployed for more than three months. The Singapore Hiring Manager Survey Report 2025–2026 draws on responses from 375 hiring managers across multiple industries, including both final decision-makers and HR professionals involved in candidate evaluations. Their insights provide a clear view of how companies are coping with talent shortages, changing skill demands, and the challenges of helping jobseekers return to the workforce as digital transformation accelerates. Kenji Naito, Group Chief Executive Officer, Reeracoen Group Kenji Naito, Group Chief Executive Officer, Reeracoen Group, said, "Across Asia, hiring is shifting toward a skills-based, human-centric approach. This study highlights the need for companies to evaluate potential not only by job history, but also by motivation, effort and adaptability. At Reeracoen, we are committed to bridging the trust gap between employers and jobseekers." Hiring confidence remains low, with only 23.2 percent of hiring managers saying they feel very confident about finding qualified local talent. The majority cite high salary expectations (80.3 percent) as the top challenge, followed by skills mismatch (65.1 percent). Another 56.3 percent say there is a lack of experienced candidates, while 40.5 percent report limited interest from jobseekers. Career gaps remain a hurdle, with 63 percent of employers hesitant about candidates who have been unemployed for more than three months. Upskilling carries significant weight in hiring decisions. A total of 76.6 percent of respondents say that recent training, certifications or skills development are essential when assessing applicants. Employers continue to place high value on digital and AI skills, followed by project management, data literacy, technical certifications and communication abilities. Recruitment agencies continue to play a significant role in the hiring process. More than 76 percent of employers rely on agencies to shortlist candidates, which helps reduce mismatches and hiring delays, particularly for roles that are harder to fill. "Singapore's hiring landscape is changing quickly, and the data shows that employers are becoming more selective in how they assess readiness and skills. Mid-career candidates and those returning to the workforce are evaluated not just by experience, but also by their recent learning efforts and job readiness. These insights provide important direction for organisations looking to strengthen their hiring strategies and adapt to shifting workforce expectations," said Cheryl Ng, Country Director, Singapore, Rakuten Insight. Singapore's rapid digital transformation continues to widen the gap between employer expectations and jobseeker readiness. Employers increasingly value preparation, skills evidence and proactiveness. Jobseekers who lack recent activity or training often struggle to demonstrate immediate value, highlighting opportunities for companies, agencies and policymakers to support fairer hiring evaluations and re-entry pathways. Shoichi Sunaga, Branch Manager, Reeracoen Singapore "In Singapore's fast-moving job market, hiring managers are under pressure to make decisions quickly. Yet many still hesitate when faced with career gaps or non-traditional profiles. This report shows that readiness signals, such as upskilling, re-entry motivation and transparency, can make a meaningful difference. Recruitment agencies play an important role in surfacing these overlooked talents," said Shoichi Sunaga, Branch Manager, Reeracoen Singapore.
