Exemptions
An exemption records that a worker is formally excused from a requirement they would otherwise need to meet. Some people are exempt from holding a particular clearance because of another role they hold — for example, registered teachers and police officers are often exempt from needing a standard Queensland Blue Card.
Exemptions sit alongside credentials on a worker's profile and count towards their compliance. If a worker is properly exempt from a requirement, that requirement is satisfied — you don't also need to chase the underlying card.
Verifiable exemptions
Like credentials, some exemptions are verifiable — Oho can confirm the exemption against the issuing body rather than relying on the worker's say-so. When an exemption is verifiable, Oho records the outcome and keeps a history of every check, just as it does for a credential.
What you'll see
The result is shown the same way as a credential — one of a few outcomes, with a colour so it's easy to scan:
| Outcome | Colour | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| MAY_ENGAGE | Green | The exemption is confirmed and current. |
| MAY_NOT_ENGAGE | Red | The exemption couldn't be confirmed, or no longer applies. |
| REVIEW_REQUIRED | Yellow | Confirmed but worth a closer look before relying on it. |
