About us
Overview
OnePassport is a patent-pending, cloud-based system for managing
compliance and skills records that allows workers in highly regulated
industries to manage their own information so that their employers
don’t need to.
OnePassport was originally designed for the aged
care sector but has since grown into other regulated industries
including disability, healthcare and employment services with new
sectors approaching OnePassport regularly. The platform allows
organisations to rapidly digitise their employment or membership
records, before adding in the compliance and/or HR functionality
depending upon their needs.
Supporting employers and membership
organisations in transitioning to person-centred approaches to
workforce management.
Founders
OnePassport was founded by Michael Maher and Sean Bennett in 2015.
They saw a growth in fragmented industries that are beset with both a
mobile or transient workforce; as well as compliance or credentials
that are regulated by either government or industry bodies.
Frequently these industries struggle to attract, engage and
retain people due to the lack of support from enterprise software
providers. Enterprise software platforms are not designed to scale
down and therefore struggle to service fragmented industries.
Michael and Sean’s vision is to build systems that connect
people and organisations with opportunities across the world. Removing
labels such as “first world’ or “third world” by providing the same
mobile device based options for both the individual and the employer.
OnePassport’s Profile platform is free to use by all people. Breaking
down walls to opportunity.

the issues facing HR departments, Executives and Managers of organisations–particularly those facing increasing
scrutiny and regulatory compliance and a growing competitive employee market.
Amanda joined OnePassport because she knows first-hand the damage and pain to both organisations and people that a breach of compliance brings.

She’s all about solutions that save time and money whilst offering protection and risk mitigation. Amanda’s a country girl at heart living on a 125-acre farm near Ballarat,
Victoria where she and her family operate a horse hospital. When she’s not out helping clients she’s heading bush on her horses.
