Worker qualification

Worker qualification is one of Demiton's published registers for Australian civil construction. Competencies, certificates and licences held by workers: rigging, EWP, first aid and so on. Demiton keeps it current from the systems a contractor already runs and publishes the record's shape as a versioned JSON Schema, so the same question works whichever system produced the record.

Fields

11 fields: 4 required, 6 optional, 1 defined by each organisation.

Required

Every record carries these fields.

workerText

The worker who holds the qualification.

Example: 5501

competencyGroup of fields

The qualification, certificate or licence held; the created competency entity, labelled from competency.name, joined to the worker by the worker_holds_competency edge.

external_idText

The composite source key <user_id>:<competency_id>, cast to text.

Example: 5501:C-4471

occurred_atDate and timeISO 8601, with time zone

When the qualification was issued.

Example: 2025-11-03T00:00:00Z

Optional

Present when the source system records them.

expiry_dateDateYYYY-MM-DD

The date the qualification lapses — the field a compliance-by-exception reader needs.

Example: 2030-11-03

competency_codeText

The stable vendor id of the competency type, so a title edit does not fork the entity.

Example: WC-GC

financial_periodDateYYYY-MM-DD

The accounting period the issue date falls in, derived from occurred_at

Example: 2025-11-01

source_record_idText

The source competency-assignment row's own id, for provenance.

competence_statusText

The source's status flag for the assignment (active/inactive, or a verification state)

Example: active

evidence_referenceText

A reference to the evidence document for the qualification.

Example: doc://compliance/whitecard/5501.pdf

Defined by each organisation

Their contents come from the organisation's own forms or systems, so they differ between organisations.

The tenant's own free-text description of the qualification.

Example: General construction induction card

Use this contract

The contract is a standard JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) document, so any JSON Schema validator can check a record against it. Keywords starting with x-demiton- add Demiton's own meaning, such as units and requiredness, and validators ignore them.
