Support Worker Code
New Support Worker Code and resources are coming soon.
We’re finalising the updated online materials, including the new Support Worker Code and supporting guidance and resources. These will be published here once they have completed final checks and are approved and ready to use.
In the meantime, staff should continue to use the current Support Worker Workbook and the Reviewer’s Guide. These remain the active resources for supporting learning and practice until the new materials go live.
Thank you for your patience while we complete this final stage.
For information about the Support Worker Code launch event which took place on 29 January 2026, including the recording and presentation slides, visit the National Support Worker Events page.
