What is the National Integrity Framework (NIF)?
Swimming Australia officially adopted Sport Integrity Australia’s National Integrity Framework (NIF) from 15 June 2022, which supersedes the Safe Sport Framework introduced in 2016.
What are your obligations?
As the Safe Sport Framework has been replaced by the 2022 National Integrity Framework, Regions/Clubs need to table the NIF at their next Committee meeting and ensure that the Committee carries a motion to adopt the NIF.
An overview of the NIF can be found here.
As a requirement of your ongoing affiliation with SQ, Clubs/Regions must do the following:
- develop and implement a Risk Management Strategy under the Working with Children (Risk Management and Screening) Act 2000 and the Working with Children (Risk Management and Screening) Regulation 2011; and
- formally adopt, the National Integrity Framework as part of that process.
